| Thiel Owners prof,I'm using the Thiel PX05 passive crossover to drive the SS2.2.As I understand it, the PX05 takes the full range signal going the 2.7s and passes the low frequency signal to the 2.2 sub. There is no high frequency roll-off for the 2.7s. The ... | |
| Thiel Owners tom,Thank you!My PX05 came configured for the Thiel 2.7 speakers.My SS2.2 has the same room adjustments as the SS2. I'm aware of the speaker output issue; however, haven't had to worry about it, as I play classical CDs at a reasonable level. (The ... | |
| Thiel Owners tomthiel, What is your opinion of the PX05 passive crossover wen used with the 2.7s and SS2.2? (Bryston 4B cubed amplifier)george | |
| Thiel Owners Jim steered me to the Bryston 4B amplifier for my new Thiel 3.5s. Never looked back. | |
| Thiel Owners tom,28Bs are one heck of a pair of monoblocs! 1000 watts into 8 ohms, and 1800 watts into 4 ohms. Inordinately low distortion .I've noticed a change (for the better) in the power amplifiers, from 4B to 4BSST to 4BSST2 to 4B cubed. My 4B cubed ha... | |
| Thiel Owners tom,Did Gary have anything to do with the development of the Bryston speakers? I wondered when I saw him in that September 2013 video, as he mentioned Jim Tanner's desire to develop a speaker line for Bryston. It's nice to know Gary was in on t... | |
| Thiel Owners ronkent,Thanks! That was whoI was looking for. Shorly after leaving Thiel, he appeared in a September, 2013 video pushing the new Bryston speaker collection. He’s advanced through the Bryston system and is now the Bryston VP for US Sales. | |
| Thiel Owners If I remember correctly, a Thiel employee (engineering?) defected to Bryston following Jim's death and when the new organization began to unravel. Am I right or incorrect? | |
| Thiel Owners ronkentThanks for the URL to the Copper article. Very interesting reading, and filled in quite a few gaps. Unfortunately, the follow-on to Jim Thiel's company was doomed from the start. I guess failure was inevitable when bean counters and th... | |

| RCA Victor Red Seal 78 Records Nostalgia!! I grew up in the Sonoran Desert (no electricity) and cut my Classical teeth on the Victor RCA Red Seal 12' 78s. We had a wind-up Victrola, and used cactus needles, as we thought the steel ones would sooner or later ruin the records.... | |
| What is the best solid state amplifier you have ever heard? Bryston 4B cubed. (Driven by a BP 17 cubed preamp) | |
