| Magnepan Owners Ummm...like...well...yeah. Yes. I’ve never, and I mean never, blown a fuse on anything in my life, and unless I’m mistaken my Maggie 1.7i’s are the first loudspeakers I’ve had that employ fuses. I was somewhat hesitant to adhere to the whole megi... | |
| Ownership and Review of a pair of Ohm Super Sound Cylinder I bought a pair of Walsh 2’s a few years back in order to revisit my first encounter with a like pair when I was...well, younger. Much. While they were in acceptable cosmetic and sonic condition, I nonetheless contacted John, in the process discov... | |
| Magnepan Owners Just received my kit from Mike Powell this afternoon for my 1.7i’s. (Ribbon cables + fuse/jumper). The whole megillah. Earlier on I purchased a pair of Magna Risers from this site which included a pair of jumper replacements as well so, as of yet,... | |
| Any Bluetooth wireless speakers that you like? Peachtree just released the Deepblue3 recently. In my humble opinion this is the top “portable” Bluetooth speaker system out there - and for just $399. I started with the original version, bought the 2 version upon release, and I just ordered the ... | |
| I think I've Just Seen Absolute Proof That Audiophiles Are Insanely Gullible Am I so original as I think I am for coining the term, to describe myself mind you, “Audiot?”I’ve bought isolation footers/platforms/cable risers and a few other forgettable things since joining this site, but never have I parted with thousands in... | |
| Thiel Owners Hmmm...a pair of CS 7 available locally for $3k? Cabinets appear fair...I’m also looking at a Modwright KWI200 integrated which would give me an additional 100 watts @ 4 ohms. Damn you, Audiogon! | |
| Thiel Owners You bet your ass a souped up version of the 3.5’s would have an audience!With regards to the EQ, I always had it engaged, when it wasn’t the sound was less...something. To my humble ears the 3.5’s also have a more distinct mid and high impressio... | |
| Thiel Owners I sent Rob @ Thiel a very brief email congratulating him on continuing with the excellent service that he has already demonstrated over the years. Though my email did not warrant a reply, Rob did - and quickly. And I'm not even a customer at th... | |
| Thiel Owners Frankly, I’ve thrown a lot of different amp/preamp combinations at my Thiels over the past few years, none of which sounded bad through them. Class d amps mated as well as class a/b amps managed; every combo offered something different but to say... | |

| Integrateds: Why do they all SUCK? Jeepers, casting aspersions on an entire category of equipment without citing the reasons why, such as price and/or anything else, kind of begs off any informative dialogue that might develop. After a good many years spent with separates, and a g... | |
| Best subwoofer below 40Hz for Magnepan .7? Condosound...I won’t be adding a sub to my newly acquired 1.7i’s, but when I had the .7’s I employed a small REL which, to my humble ears, meshed very well. I forget which model I used, but the driver was 8”. My 1.7i’s are 40hz, as well and yet I’... | |
| Thiel Owners This is easily one of the best, most informative and civil forums I've had the pleasure to come across on this site since joining, oh, about five years ago. There had been a rather lengthy stray from the "hi-fi" scene in my life, perhaps a 25... | |
| Whats in your second system? My second system is a Peachtree Audio Deepblue2 which I’ve been listening to whilst awaiting the arrival of a pair of new Maggie 1.7i’s. N | |
