| Thiel Owners unsound typically relates a valid point regarding how good the 3.5’s are. My listening room was 24 long by 14 wide with a ceiling sloping from 9 to 17 feet. On the left is a wall, on the right the wall is 14 feet away. Tough room to tame. As I’ve... | |
| Thiel Owners Interesting dialogue about Thiel and Maggie’s...Previously, I’ve stated that Thiel struck me as Maggies with more bass. I stick with that. I’ve had two pairs of the MMG -.one with the bass module which did ZIP to augment anything good about them -... | |
| Thiel Owners I’m glad to report that bluestone is local enough and/or intrepid enough to arrange pickup of the 3.5 drivers and crossovers next week. Seems as though he is as fond of these old speakers as I had been. And I’ve had a few. They are most definitely... | |
| Thiel Owners Re: 3.5’sI have a complete pair of CS 3.5 drivers and crossovers available for FREE to anyone here living close enough to zip 11755 to pick them up. I can’t/won’t ship them. I’ve put this offer up in this thread before. Sequential serials on the ... | |
| Starting Over...Need help finding the perfect integrated to replace everything I downsized from separates to a Modwright KWI200 which has more power than I’d ever utilize. Bought it used for $2100. I called Modwright to inquire about replacing the cheap plastic remote with the metal one, and after a few minutes on the phone... | |
| Thiel Owners The Kids are alright...My oldest brother’s son is getting married this coming October. I’ve attended many weddings over the last few years, too many, in fact all of them, using deejays for the reception celebration. Recently my nephew’s sister th... | |
| Thiel Owners tomthiel... I reside in Lake Grove, N. Y. Very close to Stony Brook University. Again, free for pickup only. I haven’t looked at them in a while but I remember the serial numbers were sequential. | |
| Thiel Owners unsound...You were the very first member to relate the merits of the 3.5’s to me and once again I have learned more. I mis-spake (new word!) about sensitivity/efficiency and your input cleared that up. Much appreciated. I had lived with a pair o... | |
| Thiel Owners thielrules....I see that the 3.7’s have an efficiency rating of 90db whereas the 3.5 is 88db. Does the efficiency difference offer a better low-level listening experience with the 3.7? I’ve been able only to move up the food chain to the 3.6 whic... | |
| Thiel Owners High Performance Stereo has had a pair of CS3.5 with EQ listed on its site forever and a day - $1000 with availability in New York or “along the I95 corridor.”I have never conducted business with them in the past; reluctant because they rarely ten... | |
| Greatest debut album If Cheech and Chong counts then we can’t discount George Carlin’s “Class Clown.”Methinks that was his debut... | |
| Greatest debut album Ummm, Aqualung was not Tull’s debut album. I forget which one was but...As for the bad sonics on Zep 1...?It was a long time coming before I would have anything resembling a “decent” stereo in them days. My second eldest brother came home one af... | |
| My Amp is Broken - Not Sure What to Do - Any Recommendations? Heck, I had the same speakers with a Modwright KWI 200 which offered 200 into 8 and 400 Watts into 4 ohms which was more than enough power. I also ran a pair of Thiel CS 3.6 with a Pass Labs X150.5 amp,,150/8, 300/4 ohms and never had a problem. Y... | |
| Inexpensive tablet well suited as a control point for my streamers, including Sony I had the Sony and used an old iPad that had outlived its purpose as a business tool. Worked fine with the Hap. Or just use your phone if so equippped. |
