| Thiel Owners Yeah...In the past two/three years I've had...The newest McIntosh stereo receiver MA6700Which I liked kind of...took that back and bought the MC275 tube amp because, well, it looked so cool. Had a minor issue with it which McIntosh customer servic... | |
| Thiel Owners Because I'm an idiot!!!I think I did to fund a McIntosh MC275. Still kicking myself for that. | |
| Thiel Owners Jafant...Were I constrained by space I'd definitely consider the integrated based upon my experience with the 150.5 amp - besides that, an appreciable cost efficiency as well. I see that Reno Hifi has one for $3795 right now. If you were to go sep... | |
| Thiel Owners Unsound...Thanks for your thoroughly enlightening information! By far and away the most informative I've received or have been able to read about them. I should make it clear that I had/have absolutely no qualms regarding the bass output of these... | |

| Rhythmic L12 vs. SVS SB-1000 Even though I'm selling my L12 because I sold my Maggie .7's I couldn't resist purchasing it because of the price -. $539 direct from Rythmik. Previously I had a small Rel, and a B&W sub - I forget the model. The Rythmik was, IMHO, as "musica... | |
| What has your audiophile experience taught you about yourself? Science!!! I chortle. | |
| Yes "Fragile" How great of an album is it? I found it on some silly compilation album which all but a few times saw the light of any air play back in the day, their cover of Paul Simon's "America."Man, what a recording. 10 minutes, too!I've put together a collection of covered tunes on my... | |
| New Sony Firmware For HAPZ1ES Player Jafant... I have a 3TB hard drive as backup for the Hap. I've been slapping some files onto a Zip drive and loading it into the Hap that way. Works well. | |
| New Sony Firmware For HAPZ1ES Player Thanks stereo5, I'll give that a shot. | |
| Interesting news for Peachtree Audio fans I only learned of his departure when I was hanging out at Audio Den here in beautiful downtown Lake Grove - a town with neither a lake nor a grove to lay claim to. I've had a few Peachtree products all of which I purchased from the Den or Stereo E... | |
