| Speaker jumpers Room treatments were probably the best upgrade I've made.Its just in this hobby it's hard to get away from more is better! | |
| Audioquest I'm using integra 80.3 for both music and movies.I know you can only get 2 channel so good with a processor,but it's really not bad.Just been trying to get the most out of what I have.For music I like to stream from my iPad to a Moon 100 dac into ... | |
| Audioquest Thanks for replies!I have decided to move my xpa 1 s in the basement and just run xpa 5 with my integra 80.3 and Thiel 3.7 for main system.By using only xpa 5 as only amp I can upgrade speaker wires without cutting them up,as I had to for the ult... | |
| thiel 3.7 owners One thing I noticed is that I got a little better bass with old 10 gauge monster cable speaker wire?Switched to Aq type 4 and highs where better but bass was a little less?Type 4 was all around better with my passive sub?I would like to try some d... | |
| thiel 3.7 owners I'm using xpa 1 monos,Intergra 80.3 preamp,Audioquest Columbia xlrs,Type 4 wires,B&W ctsw 12 passive sub with a Xpa 2 amp bridged for sub power.Xpa 5 for B&W center 2 and Magnepan rear channel speakers.For 2 channel is pretty good but real... | |
| thiel 3.7 owners Thanks!I think the 2.4 se is really nice looking in that deep finish!Almost bought a pair of those also.My 3.7 are Les Paul edition, they look like Jimmy Pages Les Paul.I almost bought a rel for my 805s,but settled on a Golden Ear xxl.The B&Ws... | |
| thiel 3.7 owners Maybe a pair of 2.4 or 2.7 might help?I really enjoyed the 2.4s!Sounded much bigger than the are!I have a pair of B&W 805 Diamonds in the basement that I really like,until I come back upstairs to listen to the Thiels👍 | |
| Golden ear sub x I decided to move passive B&w 12 sub with my Thiels.Worked Exellent!Just the little extra bass I needed!Not boomy at all.Next I decided to try out a Goldenear xxl for my B&W 805 because now I needed a sub for those.After reading Absolute... | |
| Golden ear sub x Found out Vandersteen subs only have a year warranty,that's pretty lame for a 1600 sub!Rel 3 years,Svs 5 years. | |
| Golden ear sub x Yes,I use a processor in both systems.Onkyo 886 with B&WS and Integra 80.3 with Thiel speakers.Both pre amps are very similar.Needed a processor in basement to control passive sub.I know processors for 2 channel aren't the best choice,but pret... | |
| Golden ear sub x The Velodyne is a fsr 12, never blended well with my 805 diamonds in my basement system either?I picked up a b&w cts w 12 passive sub,using a processor to xover and a Emo xpa 2 bridged to amplify awhile ago to go with my 805s in the basement ... | |
| Golden ear sub x Thanks for responses so far.My system is a pair of Thiel 3.7,Emotiva xpa1s,Integra 80.3 processor,audioquest Columbia interconnects and type 4 wires.I always felt that I was lacking the lowest bass with my Thiels.I started using an old Velodyne se... |
