| Vintage Amps for Thiel 1.5 When I had Thiels I used a Forte 4A. Pure claas A amp 50 wpc into 8 ohms and 100 wpc into 4 ohms also in Class A. Also the Forte 6 is very good an A/B amp 200 wpc into 8 ohms and 350 wpc into 4 ohms. The first ten watts are Class A. | |
| Kell showcase or anthem avm50 I purchased a used Krell Showcase about 10 years ago and it's still going strong. I'm using a Cambridge Audio BD 752 for movies. The Krell doesn't have HDMI but I use the 7.1 analog from the BD player w/excellent results. My amps have balanced out... | |
| Tube integrated I would check out the Conrad Johnson CAV-45. American made and right in your price range. CJ has a long tradition of quality tube equipment. | |
| Thiel Owners Strata Gee.com has a great in depth interview w/Tom Thiel today. Agreat read. | |
| Getting into tubes I would look at the Rogers 65V-1. Excellent integrated w/a lifetime warranty. Self biasing and can use either EL-34 or KT-88 tubes. When you order you tell them what tube you want. When Roger was at my dealers store he said if there is a problem w... | |

| Thiel is officially closed!! Great to see there are still some real pros at Thiel. | |
| Thiel is officially closed!! Is Gary Dayton leaving Bryston?? | |
| Slovakia JJ ECC 802 and 803 tubes. Thanks for your input on Shuguang and Psvane tubes. They were not on my radar. The CL-38 SE is sounding very sweet w/the current tubes but after more break in I'm going to look into these tubes. | |
| Slovakia JJ ECC 802 and 803 tubes. Currently my preamp has less than 50 hours so I'd like to put some break in time before re-tubing. I had a Gold Lion 6922 tube in my former CJ ET3 SE and liked it very much. Being the preamp uses both 12ax & 12au tubes should I stick w/the sam... | |
| Slovakia JJ ECC 802 and 803 tubes. Tube Depot sells the JJ 802 & 803 and is used in the SE version. Luxman mentions the difference in their specs. | |
| ELAC Uni-fi - All Hype?? Maybe you were thinking of Phil Jones of Platinum Audio and currently AAD. |
