| Supratek Owners Thread Because of the high cost of the 6sn7 tube set, as stated, I decided to go with a 6J5GT tube in the preamp Mick is building me. | |

| Thiel Owners Thiel is no longer made and they were outsourcing overseas toward the end before doors were closed. Yes, there are US made products in audio industry but that percentage is dropping and yet the prices continue rise. We have had audio companies cal... | |
| Thiel Owners I assure you I get it. A good majority of Audio products/components are made overseas and yet the price remains in the realm of product made here in the USA where workers deserve to receive a respectable wage, healthcare, retirement, etc.... to ta... | |
| Thiel Owners jafant,I think you are missing the intent of offering a group offer. This offer was to make outriggers that mirrored what JT did on the CS2.4SE.Outriggers would be larger and thicker for larger models while maintaining proportions the outriggers ... | |

| Thiel Owners Let me rephrase my previous statement. I don't think the Thiel cabinets are poorly engineered. My issue is MDF. Granted spruce fibered MDF is a cut above the other grades. Spruce bracing would seem more appropriate with Delignit framing/structure.... | |
| Thiel Owners tomthiel,I appreciate the info and no surprise here that the other materials you mentioned yielded a better cabinet. I met a gentleman years ago who sourced material for Gibson. He was in his late 80's when I met him and I purchased AA/AAA Stika S... | |
| Thiel Owners tomthiel,If this has been discussed in the is thread then please excuse as it would take me days to go over all the responses. Do you know if what other cabinet materials Thiel tried and ultimately went with MDF.I'm in manufacturing and have tried... | |
