Thiel 1.5 vs. 1.6, any experience?
Mds,I respectfully and reluctantly disagree with the 'bass assessment'.The 1.5 may have had 'claimed bass' to 38...(very doubtful, oh, there but WAAAAY DOWN)...The 1.6, and I compared them, had much more tonal and realistic bass in that region to ...

Gryphon vs. McIntosh
Wow...my insistance on this issue, borders on and has surpassed 'Beating a dead horse'...but...Del, if you knew what nitwits they had just 8 years ago, when I was trying, almost beseeching them to sell me their top brands, without audition, no fav... 
magnepan 1.7 or 3.7 vs spendor s8e
Maggies, for the great unwashed out there, bring an 'Oh My God' moment to listeners.Their lack of cabinet sounds, which nobody ever knows they're hearing until they've heard otherwise, is really startling to most people.This is why I said what I d... 
Gryphon vs. McIntosh
And anti Obama types place the 'blame' at the feet of the man who inherited the mess.It's almost funny, if it weren't so tragic, the length of memory that people have, as it relates to politics and world events.I seem to remember dereg...allowing ... 
Gryphon vs. McIntosh
Bob,We could, I could...yet one of my, if not my central point, was the dismissive attitude of the people at Gryphon, with regard to Americans.Plain and simple, they feel superior. The elitist European attitude that rears it's ugly head in that co... 
Warm Rich Lush Speakers...Recommendations?
Aerials are terrific speakers Jkw1...you did good!I owned the Mahlers circa, 2003...after hearing Rebecca Pigeon's Spanish Harlemon them at the CES2003.They image, are never offensive, in terms of sounding etched or having too much HF hash...or sh... 
mbl - is there a problem?
With all due respect, the question here is, 'Should I buy MBL?', not which speaker does one like the best.Personally, I prefer the MBL, but can fully understand, given the variability of sound at shows, that one might, 'not have connected with the... 
Gryphon vs. McIntosh
Out of curiosity, I visited the 'Faq' section of Gryphons rather impressive Website.This is the totality of what was available.The following is a full 'cut and paste'.Why is Gryphon not available in USA?Gryphon has a strong following among US audi... 
Gryphon vs. McIntosh
Elberoth2,That's a strong statement from someone who owns the kind of gear that you do...obviously a person of taste and a pocketbook that buys quality.For anyone NOT familiar, there's just something right about the sound.Organic, real...it's my a... 
Are the JL Fathom subs really that good....
Yes...and I started to give a one word answer.I recently designed a Home Theater Room for an old friend.Everything done as well as I know how to do it.So, dry wall with OSB glued and screwed non consecutive seams...Golden Ratio 'shaped' room.Incor... 
Warm Rich Lush Speakers...Recommendations?
Jaxwired,The Vienna Acoustics Mahlers are just about what you describe.I owned a pair...they were/are among the most beautifully voiced loudspeakers I've ever heard.For further tweaking, they have a treble and bass + and - setting...not so purist ... 
Gryphon vs. McIntosh
Deflincek,Thanks for reading and commenting.First of all, GDP only gives one a peripheral look at the 'money' that floats through and around the people within a country, and is NOT an indicator as to whether people will spend money on any particul... 
Thiel 1.5 vs. 1.6, any experience?
Very different speakers as Timrhu states.The porting is different, the tonal balance is, much more natural...more of a modern day version of THIEL's house sound.The bass, for me was the big improvement...midbass...heck its better in every way, AND...
