| Thiel Owners duramax747 My room is approx 32x16 with a 12’ listening triangle. My speakers are positioned halfway along the long walls, so about 15’ from the front wall. Re your Nashville auditions, I would hazard a guess that someone at the first shop mista... | |
| Krell Moves to new location The main point is that you and I should decide what we do with our stuff, not a manufacturer we paid in full for the product we own. | |
| Krell Moves to new location Notorious offenders include Apple, Tesla, and Krell. None of them makes cheap throwaway stuff. Not Krell and Tesla, anyway. | |

| Krell Moves to new location if Krell would release their service schematics to third party technicians, servicing Krell products would not be an issue. Absolutely, one hundred percent. It is time Right to Repair laws are passed in all states to give folks back the contro... | |
| Thiel Owners So CS5i are as hard to drive as big Apogees? How low do they dip? | |
| Thiel Owners @duramax747 I keep keeping an eye out for a nice pair of CS5i, so maybe someday I'll have to deal with the question of what to drive them with. I have Classé monoblocks that are 200w into 8 ohms and 400w into 4 ohms. I'm hoping they might be up... | |
| Krell Moves to new location Another unexplored item is Krell's board and who sits on it | |
| There Is Nothing Like the Real Thing - Our State of the Art I saw David Bowie in concert one time, at Meadowlands if I recall. Let's just say he lived up to his reputation as a terrible live performer. His band was mediocre; a couple of regulars and session guys showing up for the paycheck. Terrible arena ... | |
| Krell Moves to new location who is ultimately responsible for returning everyone’s equipment and where is the money to do it going to come from? Owners will likely receive a freight bill payable upfront. | |
| Can you recommend Jazz for some one that doesn't like Jazz? @allenf1963 Lift Your Skinny Fists like Antennas to Heaven is fantastic. I got it some 20 years ago, my first GYBE album. Later I put it on my son's musical radar, because that's what dads do :) Sorry about the cancellation, hope you catch them... | |
| Can you recommend Jazz for some one that doesn't like Jazz? @allenf1963 Funny you mention GYBE, my kid just caught them live in Montreal. He loved it. He texted me he loved opening act BIG|BRAVE too, so I took a delve and I liked what I heard a lot. Reminds me of an Acid King / Melvins mashup, if that ma... | |
| Starting my showroom again Here is my one-and-a-half cent The hifi business is similar to the fashion business in many ways. Online Chinese own most of it. Prestige brands make fortunes overseas while their traditional former customers while their days in assisted-living f... | |
| Can you recommend Jazz for some one that doesn't like Jazz? @allenf1963 I am not really a fan of jazz either, although I’ve been known to dabble in the ambient / French / Brazilian subgenres I just wanted to say thanks for recommending Bohren & der Club of Gore. I hadn’t heard of them but I am reall... | |
| Krell Moves to new location OK folks, please take the following with a grain of a kilo of salt. I just bought a vintage Krell from a guy who works in the industry. We got to talking gear and shooting the breeze, and at some point I said good thing I can fix that Krell mysel... |
