| Thiel Owners unsound, Allow us to get her make-up on before we reveal to the public. I'll leave describing the room concept to Tom as he was the designer of the room. He asked what perimeters he had to work within, as far as footprint, and he went at it ... | |
| Thiel Owners tmsrdy, A pair of CS 3.7 are on my list to purchase. They have to be in very good condition and within a reasonable driving distance for me to purchase as shipping is not an option with the high risk of damage. With that said, as upgrades are be... | |
| Thiel Owners tmsrdg, The last iteration, which implemented this new technology, had me scratching my head. It was very obvious something significant changed from the last iteration, This is when I just wanted to sit back and listen to music thru these monit... | |
| Thiel Owners jafant, This really wasn’t about gear. It was about testing the room and proving concept. it wasn’t until the third day (Sunday) that we really listened to music. Even then it wasn’t ideal as my tube pre amp left channel wasn’t firing so we work... | |
| Thiel Owners oblong, Great choice of speaker in Thiel line. I have a pair in zebra wood. Unfortunately mine has some cosmetic issues from shipping. I discussed this with Tom and my plan is to refinish them with a beautiful automotive finish. I have new gr... | |
| Thiel Owners Tom, I’ll get some images of the room soon. Meanwhile I have my list of "To Do’s" that needs to be accomplish before your second visit. I had a customer stop by the other day to pick up some parts we made for his Clearaudiio turntable. He wante... | |
| Thiel Owners jafant, The cabling for final listening test was Tom's which is what will be the internal cabinet wiring as well. I'll let Tom speak to the specifics regarding that. We were not focused on gear as much as sweeping the room and getting the room ... | |
| Thiel Owners Reporting in as to the progress made regarding Thiel Renaissance. I had the pleasure of having the man himself, Tom Thiel, come for a visit to evaluate what he has been working on the last few years. This was a planned visit for almost a year b... | |
| Audience SX2/Front Row Cables...has anyone tried or heard much of this new reference line? audiophile1, Nice system with great room layout. Break-in with continuous load within a week you are pretty much there. They do open up with usage. As with previous lines with Audience, the mids jump out at you in a good way. With the Front R... | |
| Thiel Owners I sure will when I get them done. Right now I'm working on a room for my CS 7.2 and CS5i. I love the less is better approach Thiel undertook. The mid-century modern look is timeless. | |
| Thiel Owners unsound, I completely agree with that statement. I'm in the professional motorsports business so I was speaking from my experience. This industry has more than a few highly skilled craftsmen up to the task. You also validated my point with... | |
| Thiel Owners On the black CS 3.7 I didn't see in ad disclosure the paint was not original nor they were painted by the seller. If that is true then I would ask for paperwork of what company who did the work and what process was followed to finish the CS 3.7. ... | |
| Thiel Owners thieliste, Interesting preference between Jadis and Vitus.. I take it you listen at lower levels? I’ve favored Thiel’s with tubes somewhere in the chain. Pre amp or Tube DAC has been my preference, as I like the muscle of high current SS amps in... | |
| Thiel Owners Amberwood is my second favorite. Rosewood is my #1 but can inly be found in earlier model as it is near impossible to source enough certified rosewood from Brazil/Boliva. | |
| Thiel Owners rc1985 if you repair/replace one speaker I'd encourage you to do the same with the other speaker. With the painstaking process Thiel had to match components and drivers, in turn the end user should do the same. What finish are your speakers? |
