Thiel CS 1.2 Upgrade with SB Acoustic's
Madisound did come back and say the speaker will sound AM radio until it breaks in.  My problem with that is the possible inability to return the product . 
Thiel CS 1.2 Upgrade with SB Acoustic's
Hello, well I hooked up the SB acoustic  SB17MFC35-4 today and I can report the original is best.  The SB had a little more bass, but the sound is muddy compared to the original sound.  Its like the SB has a Blanket over the speaker that the orig... 
Thiel CS 1.2 Upgrade with SB Acoustic's
I got these for $50 so its not a huge loss.  However I will keep the originals if I like the sound of the SB's better, so I can always return them to stock if need be.  I have contacted someone I have worked with before from Thiel on getting this ... 
Thiel Tweeter issue
My Car is a Coupe, so I only have 2 doors.  The stock speakers still run in the back But not real loud, I have always been a fan of front stage. 
Thiel Tweeter issue
I have the CS 1.2's.  I asked Madisound about some replacement speakers and they recommended the  SB Acoustics SB17MFC35-4.I run a pair of SB Acoustic SB17NRXS35-4 in the front of my Civic and LOVE them!  They say my 4ohm speaker is 170mm and thes... 
Thiel Tweeter issue
Ahh just took the covers off and its not the tweeter.  The rubber surround has come unglued from the cone and its flapping making the noise.  
Thiel Tweeter issue
I am listening to these speakers again right now and hear a rattling sound again in one speaker.  Not sure its the same Tweeter that got fixed, or the other one, as the speakers have been moved around.  Not sure I want to spend another $120 to reb... 
Thiel Tweeter issue
I heard from Thiel, I can get the tweeter rebuilt for $120.00. This problem came when I bought these. I only paid $100 for the pair, and I thought it was the woofer. So the way I see it, even if I spend $120 for the rebuild, I only have $220 in th... 
Thiel Tweeter issue
Thanks all, I will know better by next week I am sure. I did contact Thiel Friday night, so I hope to hear from them this week. The tweeter seems to be damaged. at first I thought the woofer was torn or blown, but as it got worse over time, I was ... 
Sub suggestions
I think this might be a good option for me as well. I am switching my HT to downstairs and want to make the upstairs for mostly music. I have The Piano finish PSB Imagine T's that I want to get dual subs to match. PSB does not offer a sub in Piano... 
How Do I set up a 2 Way system, for Movies/Music
The PSB's are 20-200 Watts recommended. Nominal Impedance is 8ohmsMinimal Impedance is 4ohmsThe speakers also feature four 40mm rear ports enabling bi-wiring and bi-amplification. I have never had a speaker before that I could Bi-Wire so not sure ... 
How Do I set up a 2 Way system, for Movies/Music
So a Oppo 105 and an Integrated Amp with XLR Balanced Lines would be my best option? 
How Do I set up a 2 Way system, for Movies/Music
Sorry been meaning to respond for a while. Had a problem with my account.Anyway, What I am trying to do here, is build two systems. One upstairs, in a room that is 18WX35DX14H. I plan to make a nice 2 way system with dual subs, so will be running ... 
Anyone compared the PSB Imagine T and the T2 ???
I have the PSB Imagine T's matched with a VMPS sub, and I could not be happier. With the dedicated sub, I had no need for the T2's. I cross over between 80-90 depending on the music, and it sounds great! I had Axiom, then Swan Diva, and then these... 
Marantz SR5008 vs Cambridge Audio AZUR 650R
I have the AZUR 640R paired with PSB Imagine's and a Rotel amp running a VMPS Large Sub, and am very happy with it. I have not listened to Marantz in years, but at the time I liked them. Though today I would call them too bass heavy. Great for Jaz...
