| Your opinions on the Polk R700 speakers You probably already know this, but Gary Dayton has taken over at Coherent Source Service and offers parts/repairs for Thiel speakers in Lexington, KY. If you like your 2.4 speakers it could be good option. | |
| Jazz for aficionados I have a copy of Billy Cobham's Glass Menagerie "Observations and Reflections" that I purchased maybe 40 years ago. The first and one of my favorite jazz albums. I take it out and play it every so often and it still sounds great. Unfortunately i... | |
| Qln, Joseph Audio, Audiovector, Marten, or Canton...? OP what did you eventually purchase ? I'm researching Audiovector and found some good info in this thread. | |
| Denon HEOS LINK or Wiim Music Streamers? Thank you soix and mahler123, the Gustard and Cambridge Audio have some nice features indeed. | |
| Denon HEOS LINK or Wiim Music Streamers? Thank you mahler123 and soix. I have the WiiM Ultra setup (easy peasy even for a non-tech person like me). With the Ultra's EQ set to Flat, my initial impressions are the WiiM Ultra and the HEOS LINK are surprisingly similar in sound quality in... | |
| Denon HEOS LINK or Wiim Music Streamers? Thank you blackbag20 and soix, I've been wondering if an external DAC should be purchased soon. I know the DAC is the digital/analog converter but that's where my knowledge ends. | |
| Denon HEOS LINK or Wiim Music Streamers? Thank you gkelly and jeffbij, Wiim Ultra is on the way. | |
| Favorite Newly Discovered Female Vocalist Thanks for a great thread with some excellent new to me music. I have a few names to offer: Carly Simon - Listening to her now... "You Belong to Me" and "You're So Vain" and so many more... her voice is timeless. Shirley Bassey - If you grew up... | |
| remembering Eva Cassidy, 25 years after her death A gifted artist. My musical tastes have expanded and I enjoy finding new music. But I always come back to Eva. | |
| Thiel Owners @tomthiel, Thank you. I too think the CS2.2 and that tweeter are pretty special and will look forward to hearing more about the enhancements. | |
| Thiel Owners After spending a good part of nine days with the new-to-me CS2.2 speakers, I can say they are a substantial upgrade in every way over my CS1.5 which I still think highly of. Detailed but not harsh, balanced, and good imaging despite still finding ... | |
| Thiel Owners Thank you Tom I appreciate it. I drove to audition the 02's. They sounded good but the cabinets showed more damage to the wood veneer than I was comfortable with so I did not purchase them. So I drove another hour and auditioned a really nice s... | |
| Thiel Owners Hi all, I have an opportunity to purchase a pair of Thiel Model 02's. Do these have foam or rubber surrounds... I've found online info that suggests it could be either ? How do I be sure the drivers are original without removing them from the ca... | |
| Has anyone switched from Class AB/A to Class D? Was it better? Was it worse? OP: I have not really switched... I have A/B amp with tube pre-amp separates in one system and D integrated in another system. To my ears they both sound excellent with the A/B having a bit better control over the bass. | |
| Have you reached your end point with this addictive hobby? I have been through lots of used equipment but the search is over with separates made in the US by one of the direct to consumer folks who is well known. The sound and quality are excellent and I have no need or desire to upgrade. I have a small s... |
