| Thiel Owners Folks...Regarding "sidetracking" Jafant's intended subject matter - no problemo! All the new posts pertaining to the possible improvements to be had are always welcome and championed. I've learned a lot reading the opinions and suggestions here, ... | |
| Thiel Owners Wow - some very informative posts here regarding cables and the CS5's power handling specs. Thanks to all. The Son of Ampzilla arrived via UPS too late last night so I couldn't hook it up. According to the seller and fellow member here it was serv... | |
| Thiel Owners Woohoo - I just purchased from a fellow member here a GAS Son Of Ampzilla which will be swapped in and out with my Primare A34.2 just for kicks. GAS is one of those manufacturers I've been curious about for a long time, along with Moscode, Pliniu... | |
| 2016: a new year for music.... I'm awaiting Jack White's acoustic LP...should be fun. Just dug a little deeper into Sean Hayes' catalogue and I will relate that it's definitely worth your while to do the same. Remarkably good stuff. | |
| You can only take 5 albums to a deserted Island... sevs...I use iTunes and cdbaby to look for new artists/music, then seek out places where an LP or disc can be purchased. | |
| Thiel Owners Nkonor...Wow - I've never blown a driver in any of the speakers I've ever owned. Below there's a post clarifying that legacy models can be repaired by Thiel. The pair of 3.5's I gave to my nephew a while back had a midrange repaired by them, cost... | |

| Thiel Owners robin...Hang you out to dry? Over what, pray tell?When and if timing and finances permit I may eventually move up from my 3.5's to another Thiel, but it's been proven that these are extraordinarily difficult to beat at any price. I've had Magnepa... | |
| Thiel Owners jonandfamily...My 3.5's are about 30 years old and still perform as I imagine they did way back when. I suppose one could check the crossover components out to verify all is in order, but I am personally VERY hesitant about letting anyone attempt ... | |
| What is going on? No-one buys good stuff priced right. If I had the $20k to blow on a tonearm without suffering my lot in life I probably could justify the expenditure without aforethought. Just because something is out of my reach financially does not make those who can afford it dupes - it's simply... | |
| Thiel Owners I'm using a Primare A34.2 class d amp which is rated at 150 into 8ohms and "almost double that" into 4ohms - that directly from Primare when I reached out to them inquiring about it. (Their owner's manual is spartan to say the least.) Virtually e... | |
| Thiel Owners Unsound...Wow - you actually had an opportunity to speak with Jim Thiel? I'm envious as hell. No other component I've had gives me more pleasure than these 3.5's. For me they've proven to be my reference point for quality loudspeakers overall. T... |
