| Thiel 3.6 vs. Dunlavy SC-IV/A Guys,Thanks for all the interesting responses.Question for pepperdog. Were you referring to the No.39 CD player by Levinson? Also, I may make an upgrade to a Pass pre-amp someday.Also, interconnects are another area I may look at in the future too. | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? Well, so far, it's my Thiel 3.6s mated with my new Pass X-350 power amp. Lot of great speakers mentioned here. As one writer noted, the quality of the recording makes a big difference. A mediocre recording sounds mediocre on even a great system. | |
| Good upgrade amp for my Thiel 3.6s Thanks for your advice Newbee. I do have a solid-state preamp. The Adcom GFP-750.Just had a dealer recommend the Conrad-Johnson MF2500 to me. Actually I was calling him based on an earlier recommendation for the Plinius. He told me was phasing out... | |
| Good upgrade amp for my Thiel 3.6s Any opinions on sticking with Class A solid-state circuitry vs. tubes with the 3.6s? There's a dealer near me who's selling a pair of Audio Research M300 monoblocks 300wpc.I like what I've heard about Threshold. There's a recording engineer I was ... | |
| Good upgrade amp for my Thiel 3.6s Anyone have success with Threshold and Thiels? I see one guy on Audiogon is selling a Threshold T-200 that he matched with Thiel 3.5.To Gundam91, Levinson sounds like a nice choice, but pricey. | |
| How do you get to demo equipment? I've heard of shopes even UPSing equipment to people's homes if they're interested. I think Pass Labs does it, or some of their dealers do. Anyone tried that?To Beemer. I've worked with all three of the dealers you mentioned. I probably like Natur... | |

| Good upgrade amp for my Thiel 3.6s To Pops:I'm using the Adcom GFP-750 preamp. | |
| Good upgrade amp for my Thiel 3.6s To Bryhifi:I did look into bridging the KSA-150s to mono and had a chance to pick up a second KSA-150. I thought Krell didn't do it anymore. I spoke with a rep. there and he said they didn't offer that service on older amps like that. Was I mislead?J | |
| Good upgrade amp for my Thiel 3.6s Hi Frogman,I was following some posts that I'd seen here and elsewhere from other 3.6s owners that said that 3.6s like as much power as they can get. The general concensus was that the soundstage opens up more. The imaging improves. The overall so... | |
| Good upgrade amp for my Thiel 3.6s Thanks to all the varying responses. I was wondering if anyone out there has a 3.6/Krell KSA-250 matchup. I was thinking that would be a good way to go.To Jameswei and others:Isn't 500wpc too much for the 3.6? I thought they were rated for between... | |
| The best CD Player for the money I've been auditioning an Accuphase DP-65V. Nice piece. Great musical presentation. Very pricey. $4200 the dealer quoted me. Wondered what others thoughts were on Accuphase CD players. I'm sure I'd be doing myself a favor by listening to other CD p... | |
| Best preamp under 5k for Krell amp Perhaps this needs a new thread but:I auditioned a KRC-3 with my system: Thiel 3.6s and KSA-150 amp. I liked the sound of it, soundstage, imaging etc. My brother thought it sounded too bright. When I talked to the dealer about this, he said it was... | |
| Thiel and Jeff Rowland I wholeheartedly agree with others who recommended the Krell KSA-150 (which I have) and the 250 amp with the 3.6s. Great presence and soundstage with that combination. Now I'm looking for the right preamp to run the Krell in balanced mode. Any sug... | |
| Best preamp under 5k for Krell amp To follow up on this thread,does anyone have suggestions for a 2-channel preamp (tube or SS) for running with a Krell KSA-150 amp and Thiel 3.6 speakers? I want to keep the price well below $5K. |
