| Thiel Owners @jafant In response to your question about my systems...System 1 (main system, with the 2.3s) - this is a combined home theater / 2 channel system. Focus is more on vinyl, but I also stream here and spin a silver disc occassionally.System 2 (comp... | |
| Thiel Owners @jafant The Marantz is a nice player, it has that nice warm but detailed Marantz house sound. It doesn't get a lot of use though.I have 4 complete systems, so yeah, filling out the system page seems a little daunting and isn't high on my list of p... | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Funkadelic - S/T | |
| Thiel Owners @sdecker thank you for the suggestions and information. I'm still forming impressions about the 2.3s. The Ref 1s are imaging and soundstage champs and a little warmer. The 2.3s also excel in both areas. The Thiels win on scale. Even with 4 subwoof... | |

| Whats on your turntable tonight? Carly Simon - No Secrets, quadraphonic! | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? I tried it on a copy of John Mayall's Blues From Laurel Canyon that looked new, but was super noisy and that is playing a lot better. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? The KL Audio seems to work fine. I put one of the free records in it and it cleaned up really nice. I love how easy it is to use. Drop a record in, walk away, a few minutes later there's a clean and dry record. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Not yet Steve. Probably later this afternoon. House cleaning and the Seahawks take precedence. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? Thanks James! I picked it up about 6 years ago for 5 bucks. A little surface noise, but still a great listen. | |
| Aren't you sorry you missed out on this one? It's already sold out! LOL There's no accounting for taste, mine included. I actually like it, except for the big Fender logo. It would look much cleaner without it. Would I pay that much for it? Not a chance. | |
| Thiel Owners I just added a pair of CS 2.3 speakers to my collection and was pleasantly surprised. I've read that they need tons of power, but they seem to do fine with my Herron M1 150 wpc monoblocks. I've been in love with my KEF Reference 1 speakers since... | |
| What are you streaming tonight? Donald Fagen's - The Nightfly Live, Qobuz Hi-Res. Why this isn't featured on the front page of Qobuz' new releases is beyond me. | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? CoreaHancock, WLP | |
| Whats on your turntable tonight? James, the Thiels seem to be doing fine with my 150W Herron M1 monoblocks. |
