| Thiel Owners New to the thread so hopefully I’m not interrupting the flow, but recently acquired a pair of pristine 1.6’s and I am interested in any recommendations around amplification. Currently I am using a NAD C375BEE which seems to do quite well with them... | |

| Benchmark DAC2 HGC as compared to current DACs @namrider1 Thanks for the info. I am definitely looking at the DMP-A8 and with the new Eversolo products coming out, hoping they will go on sale or I can find a clean/used one. That unit looks really solid. Might just run it through a power a... | |
