| Attention Thiel CS3.7 owners ...well I have to apologize. I ment to post these comments in the other thread asking about TAD vs Thiel... Sorry. So to answer your question. I have heard the thiel 3.7 on a few amps. Mcintosh MC252. Poor bass control and did not inspire me. Mayb... | |
| Attention Thiel CS3.7 owners Not sure how many owners are really on here. At just shy of $14,000 there are a lot of speakers out there. I demoed them a number of time with a number of amps (Audio Research, Classe, Musical fidelity). They are very nice but I just wanted more b... | |
| Attention Thiel CS3.7 owners Bryston is too lean/forward for thiels for my tastes (own Theil 2.4CS) but they are good amps. I would looks for amps with a warm rich sound. As good as the 3.7s are I would take the TADs (never heard them). They have a similar design principle an... | |
| Polk Audio I had two pairs of Polk Audio RTi for a surround system. I also tried them with music.... They are terrible for both applications, not even worth a two line review. Sold and gone. | |
| Focal 1038be or Revel Ultima Salon 2? I can't say they are the best because I will never hear everything but they are the best I have heard. I think only truly exotic speakers will be better. They put a lot of thought and engineering into these speakers and did not just throw money at... | |
| "What's The Best Value Speaker In $5k-$10k Range?" Add Revel Salon 2 to your list. | |
| Focal 1038be or Revel Ultima Salon 2? I have demoed both of these speakers and it is no contest, the Revel Salon 2 is a much better speaker. When I have a few minutes (out of time at the moment)I can respond with some details about the demos. | |
| Alexia vs Salon 2 Waste of money for surround sound. I have demoed the Salon 2 and the Sasha and would take the Revel for music because it was more coherent. But in your situation just buy the cheaper one and or demo the centers. That is what will make or brake yor... | |
| Why so many JL Audio Fathom subs for sale I wonder People realizing two channel sounds better as two channel...Honestly, I looked a few months ago an there were only a few. It is hit or miss. | |
| Any bad experience with wilson audio sasha w/p? Bo1972,I would like to hear your speaker suggestions. I have heard Wilson's sound both very good and just average in the same room with different equipment. | |
| W4S SX-500 vs. new mAmp? I think I will buy these amps. Are you guys still enjoying them? How is the bass. I like strong bass from my amps. | |
| Thiel SS2.2 added a new dimension I have demoed a pair. Very nice but the price has always stopped me from buying them. | |
| How to kickstart this area The forums did not seem to update right over the last week or so. That dumb Polk thread glitched and said it only had 22 post and was a lot closer to 70. Today the glitch seems to be fine and new post are getting bump to the top. | |
| Polk Audio RT2000p or LSi 25's--- WHO CARES ??? Hmmm,Reading this thread for the first time. I have owned polks before and after owning higher-end speakers (thiel, B&W etc). Honesty the polks are not good. They have a noisy box that kills the sound stage and they lack dynamics. Dull is a wo... | |
| Long throw 5 1/4 woofer?? Long relative to a tweeter which is next to nothing. A rep told me JL audio fathum 13 has 3" of travel. No idea if it is true... |
