Just a heads up to members about shipping.  Shipping has always been a challenge on expensive audio gear. As of late it has gotten far worse.  My business ships a good amount of stuff and two expensive splitters for MB GTR were simply lost with ...

I should be getting my Grange Signature by New Year. Mick said it was his favorite circuit design. I ordered Gloss black with Chrome. Looking forward to it.

jafant,I'm not an Audio manufacturer. I'm in Professional Motorsports so I do not have a line of audio products. With that said I'm afforded the ability to design and process various parts/projects for audio quite easily as its a hobby of mine.I'v...

tomthiel,The base can be whatever design one prefers. Ideally it should also add stability to the speaker. I have CS 7.2 and CS 6 which are fairly heavy so I did not them to be tipsy. I used the threaded inserts at the bottom of the speakers and r...

Thiel only made outriggers for certain models and they where the latter models. I've tried many platforms under a speaker and you would be and pressed to find something that out performs a Panzerholz/tankwood base.

unsound,For that very reason I will be keeping my CS 7.2. As good as my CS2.7 are, they lack the bottom end of the CS 7.2  which delivers in spades.

jhouse55,The models you have will be very comparable in size to the pair in that review. The CS 5, CS 5i, C6 CS7, CS7.2 are a different story. The smaller models .375" thickness will be fine or even .500". For the larger models .625" thickness wou...

According to the man who designed it it's pure class A as is all the XA series amps. https://www.passlabs.com/products/xa60.8/

jhouse55,Go on line and search Thiel outriggers. There is a review from Tom Lyle from Enjoy the Music that shows copious photos of the outrigger for the 2.4SE. There was never outriggers designed for the models I mentioned and the ones you mention...

jslateiv,I appreciate you taking the time to explain that to me. It makes sense. Do you use a Supratek?

esprits4s,Noted. Right now I have one of a few different models. I would like to get 2-3 of a model as it will distribute the cost of CAD/Modeling, Programming, and initial set up time amongst a few parts cutting the cost down per unit. Thiel neve...

I'm a novice at best when it comes to tubes but I was under the impression that the 6J5 uses half the current/power as the 6sn7 hence why they last forever. In the Grange Signature Mick uses two 6J5 for each 6sn7.Andy at Vintage Tube Service said ...

I spoke with Mick and he said his best line stage was built around the 6J5GT and the circuit he designed. It's called Grange Signature. It s a four month wait but looking forward to it.Gloss black with chrome. If you go to his 2021 blog from his w...

As far as 6J5GT the circa 1930's RCA are the way to go. Whats the benefit of doing the 12v? 
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.
