| DAC or Preamp controlled by DirectTV remote I have a M51 DAC and its pretty amazing. It had no problems driving my Vincent SP331 amp or my CIAudio D200 MKii amps. Its has one of the best digital volume controls out there and can decode just about anything from PCM to SACD. Check out the NAD... | |
| Need info on amp rec. for these Thiel cs2.4's No offense taken. I try to read up on a subject before I ask a question, but my understanding of electrical design is limited to construction and architecture and reading about electrical component design gets me quite lost in tryin to truly under... | |
| Need info on amp rec. for these Thiel cs2.4's Well Im glad my ignorance has amused you today!I certainly don't claim to be an expert at audio design or technology, which you obviously know more about than I do. Thank you for your post, it was very informative. I'll make sure that in my future... | |
| Need info on amp rec. for these Thiel cs2.4's Well, I only have a couple hours of listening time on the amps right ouf the box. But the bass is better. What im ultimately interested in when it comes to how "D" amps work is if there is a loss of information like some say when comparing Vinyl a... | |
| Need info on amp rec. for these Thiel cs2.4's Ok, bass is more resolved and has more heft and punch with better body. Dave Brubeck's "take five" drum solo towards the end of the songs is real nice! | |
| Need info on amp rec. for these Thiel cs2.4's Ok. Hooked up. First impressions - so far promising for being completely green out the box. No glaring flaws. Highs are a bit softer, not so edgy. Simon and garfunkle live seems more "live". | |
| Need info on amp rec. for these Thiel cs2.4's My Channel Islands come tonite. So in a few days to a week I'll give an update. If I'm lucky all goes well and the warm sound and good bass control will mate well with the hard to drive, bright Thiels. Not sure how long it will take to break in th... | |
| Review: NAD m51 DA converter I have not ever used the Oppo for anything more than a trasnport. So I cannot comment on the quality of the Oppo 93 or for that matter the 95's sound, though I have heard good things about 95's sound. However, I did own a Rega Apollo R CD player w... | |
| Need info on amp rec. for these Thiel cs2.4's Mezmo,I hope your right. I keep hearing about no "emotion" in class d amps, but every professional review, save one, and almost all people who personally own the Channels really seem to like them. I never 100% trust professional critics - just can... | |
| Need info on amp rec. for these Thiel cs2.4's Ok, I remember seeing this: http://www.conradjohnson.com/It_just_sounds_right/a-mf2100.htmlthat is why I thought it was class D, I thought all MOSFET was class d. My mistake. | |
| Need info on amp rec. for these Thiel cs2.4's I actually own an old MF2100, but its not powerful enough for the Thiels. However if I remember the MF series is a MOSFET powered amp, thus a D class amp. Someone correct me if I am wrong on that. A lot of people snub their noses at D class, but w... | |
| Thiel CS2.4 and suggestion on preamp Actually I have ordered some Cardas twins to give a try out. | |
| Need info on amp rec. for these Thiel cs2.4's I think what I am going to try to do is audition (buy with option to send back) the Channel Island D200 MKII's. From all the reviews I've been reading they have a very "tube" sound with a warm midrange and smooth highs without any harshness or gra... | |
| Need info on amp rec. for these Thiel cs2.4's Thanks for the response. To be clear I did have a modified Acurus LS11 but it didn't do me any favors. The highs and lows sounded about the same - meaning a bit bright. Right now the only thing I have to go on is that when I added the VTL preamp t... | |
| Need info on amp rec. for these Thiel cs2.4's My last comment should read: "Now I do really like the speakers but maybe I should get rid of them. I know many people will tell me to do just that -" Also the "flat" comment was in response to the Adcom Curse you iPad and your auto correct!!! |
