| Thiel Owners The original 3.5’s mids had paper surrounds. That is very interesting. I remember my 3.5 mids having a really thin, flimsy surround that definitely did not appear to be rubber. They seemed to have permanent krinkles in them. That does not see... | |
| Thiel Owners I’m worried you guys might be chasing something that doesn’t exist (a replacement 3.5 mid). Thiel told me that those drivers were no longer available years ago, so I had to have mine rebuilt by them. You might be better off looking into rebuilding... | |
| Thiel Owners They were paper cone, not kevlar. | |
| Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic Sorry if this was already covered in this thread, but instead of building ICs with double the conductors in parallel, can you get get the same effect by using the normal amount of conductors at twice the gauge? Meaning, instead of parallel runs o... | |
| Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic Yes....and this change really improves on the first splitter based model....Thanks | |
| Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic No, Calender, you didn’t understand my question. I wanted to know if anyone made a parallel run with splitters and then reterminated that exact parallel run and noted an improvement. | |
| Doug Schroeder Method, Double ic Has anyone who has tried this first with splitters reterminated the parallel runs so there is only one set of RCAs and no need for splitters? What I mean is that you'll still have double the amount of interconnect cable, but the "normal" amount o... | |
| Daily Audiophile Just what I needed... Another way to waste time on the internet. Cool site. Thanks! | |
| Which Class D Amplifier? PS Audio, Ghent, Nord, Merrill or other??? I heard the Muraudio room in Florida and it sounded incredibly shrill and thin Well that doesn't sound very good. | |
| Thiel Owners It has been said many times that a Thiel speaker is an Apogee or Magnepan with Bass. Having owned both Thiel and Magnepan, I could not disagree more! I'm sure the later speakers were much better than the 3.5s, though. I would love to hear some ... | |
| Thiel Owners Thank You for sharing your 3.5 story. Which loudspeaker replaced Thiel in your system? Happy Listening! Magenpan 3.6Rs. It was a huge step up. Earlier, I said that they are at least four times better than the Thiels 3.5s, but I have to retract th... | |
| Thiel Owners I used to have 3.5s and drove them with a Classe CA-200 amplifier that is 200@8 and 400@4. I don’t think it was enough power. Keep your eye on the EQ box. Mine would periodically go out of whack and put the amp into protection mode. Each time it g... | |
| What are the weak points of Pass amps and pre-amps ? Unsound dude its not nice to bad rap PASS So we should say everything is either great or not say anything at all? Why should he not state his opinion? Isn't that the whole point of the thread? The way you think is one of the biggest things wr... | |
| Replacing Alpha Core Goertz MI-2 Veracity Speaker Cable Hi jetter,You don't sound like a broken record at all. I just installed the Goertz cables a couple of weeks ago. I can install the zobels, but I don't see any reason to right now. I never heard that an amp can be damaged slowly by using capacit... | |
| How to DIY yourself very nice Class D monoblocks Sorry, George, I was comparing similar amps to each other. What you linked to is not even close and then you mentioned something that doesn't even exist yet. |
