| Integrated Amp for Thiel 2.3 s ? Hi Yashi, this is a tough one. I'm a big Thiel fan, IMO they are the best - with the right eq. I've got 3.6's which are very diff. from yours, however, same vein and concept. Tonally accurate and ruthlessly revealing. Even the MIT's or Cardas migh... | |
| Krell versus Levinson experience Hey jadis, nice exaggeration in your post - "sucks" and "junk". I guess those companies started with a great mission statement. Lets make products that suck, overprice them for the junk they are. | |
| Best value for the buck speaker cables Kimber 8TC with postmaster term. is the best bang for the buck IMO, but MIT 750 series 2 and 3 is a big step up in my system, YMMV. Haven't heard the MIT terminator series. | |
| Interconnect advice MIT 330 shotguns, check you input imp., the technology in these cables is input imp. specific - if possible audition, if not buy used and resell if you don't like, you will get your money back. However, you'll like. | |
| Where is the best place for amp s Hi Craig, my advice is don't do it, I've had long ic's with the components to the side out of the soundfield, and I currently have everything in the middle with the amp in front on an amp stand. I don't notice any difference - if anything I like i... | |
| spades vs. bananas I recently sent some 8TC to kimber to terminate with post master spades. I was using bare wire and also copper spades I cold soldered myself years ago. What a difference! Big improvement, noise floor dropped, better detail, just more information. ... | |
| To tube or not to tube... TUBE! Once you tube you'll never untube (pardon my english). I've had a CJpv10 for 6 years and had the 17ls on loan for a month, driving a ss classe amp. The pv10 is a giant killer in terms of performance vs price, smooth, warm, and crystal clear.... | |
| Speaker Cable 8" between Wilson / ML336? Hi Matt, I have a similar situation with Thiels I just bought. I sent my MIT biwire cables back to MIT to be reconfigured for supposedly a minimal charge. I haven't heard from MIT yet, you might want to consider the same. I substituted Kimber 8TC ... | |
| Will there be stereos in Heaven? Cables? In heaven, all music is live bumper stickers should be issued.... | |
| In need of speaker cable help Hey Tim, go as far up the MIT chain as you can, My recomendation would be 330 shotgun ic's and speaker cables - but expensive! Less expensive and in the sonic ballpark of shotguns is 330 series 3 ic's and speaker cables. Catch em for sale here at ... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? So far, Sonus Faber Extremas are the most memorable. | |
| Best cables for Thiel 2.3 MIT would be my first choice, I'm using Kimber 8TC with 3.6's but with a Classe amp and CJ tubes in the pre, I think a little warmer than your setup. I'm also using MIT IC's. I'm waiting on some MIT speaker cable, my experience is MIT ic's and cab... | |
| Which Solid State amp 2k used? Krell? Jeff, what about a bigger classe like the ca401 or the cam mono's. I've heard the 401 several times in a couple of different setups and it sounded pretty darn good. Authoritative and enough power to light up No. Cal. | |
| Vandersteen 2CE vs. Thiel CS3.6? Hi Sedond, do you really think he needs subs with a 3.6? I've got mine in a large room and the bass is excellent. | |
| Upgrade Thiel 7 s to 7.2 s ? Haven't heard the 7's, I have the 3.6's. Been told a 3.7 is in the works. I don't care what it sounds like the 3.6 performance for me is almost perfect. However, a new model will probably drive the used market value down - more audiophiles opportu... |
