| Thiel Owners Also note (not sure of the date) that the initial 7.2s had a concrete baffles (the ones I previously owned did not). My understanding (could be wrong and it was a long time ago) is that there were some problems in shipping them to the Far East (c... | |
| Thiel Owners There are other other threads on a 7 vs. 7.2 - e.g. https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/upgrade-thiel-7-s-to-7-2-sI have known people who had 7s and opted to upgrade to the 7.2s when the 7.2s were released. I've personally never heard the 7s... | |
| Thiel Owners Figured that was the reason for you asking. In my old house, before I had 3.7s, I had Thiel 7.2s. The room was huge. It was about 16x20 with a 19 foot ceiling that opened into other spaces. Easily the equivalent of over 7,000 cubic feet. The 7... | |
| Thiel Owners Not seen a Levinson 27.5 in recent times but can tell you I help deliver many moons ago Levinson amps with Thiels. Should have no trouble driving them. If one is in a large room and listens very loudly that is not to say that something that deli... | |
| REST IN PEACE - TIM MROCK @mrs_ppt - so sorry to hear as well. I ordered my first PPT order to try some things on October 25 and was shocked to hear the news. | |
| Thiel Owners The state of high end audio as far as local stores is really sad. Not only have the number of dealers declined, but to me it seems that the ones that are not all that great and are still in business stick out more. Many have also gone to cheaper... | |
| Thiel Owners jafant - thanks so much for your kind comments (and thanks so much for your great contributions to this thread). I noticed I had a few other comments on my system page (which I added not that long ago - and just includes the main system, I have o... | |
| Thiel Owners Some components and speakers are also just more sensitive to changes. I used to make virtually all of my cables (I probably have some of them in back-up systems and I have made them for others - didn't set out to do it but after they heard it, I ... | |
| Thiel Owners Don't have any side walls (or even a back wall - there's a small portion of a back wall where the fridge is behind it in the kitchen). To the right of the right speaker is basically a whole wall triple sliding glass door (covered by window treatm... | |
| Thiel Owners I have 3.7s and in my old house I had 19 foot ceilings with about a 16x20 ft. room that opened into other spaces (there was a foyer, an opening on one side of the back of the room to the kitchen and a stairway that led to an upstairs hallway that ... | |
| Thiel Owners " The power supply for the BP-26 is some distance away from the preamp. Where did you get the connecting cable?"The manual specifies what can be used - http://www.bryston.com/PDF/Manuals/300021[MPS2].pdfThis site has raw wire ( https://www.showm... | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load All I try to offer in any particular thread (and as noted per my last post I have lots of experience setting up systems and among the speakers that the store carried where my friend worked were Thiels and Maggies), and this will be my last word (r... | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load Yes - definitely getting the best from the 3.7s vs. other more expensive amps (and not just my opinion as others have heard it in my system with Class D and I'm not talking about non-audiophiles but people who have gone to shows and heard really e... | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load " Having read this very interesting discussion in its entirety several times I have to ask the commentators a question since neither the pros or cons truly answered the original Inquiry. Let's say I want to take a plunge into class D but do not w... | |
