| 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... | |
| Vandersteen 2CE vs. Thiel CS3.6? Don't know whether you have made a move yet but here's my experience. I've have 3.6's for about a month, drive em with a Classe 200 and using right now Kimber 8TC. I'm waiting on my MIT to be converted from bi to single wire, but the 8TC does a su... | |
| Any Thiel 3.6 Owners in SF Bay Area? Which ones? | |
| MIT bashed, not Transparent, why? Great question no money - I've never seen a product that some people hate so much. I'm not questioning the reasons, I'm sure in most cases they are legimate opinions. I for one have used MIT in several different systems. I even had pre network cab... | |
| Any Thiel 3.6 Owners in SF Bay Area? I'm on the other coast but I would definitely be interested to know what works with your 3.6's and I would be happy to share also my experiences. | |
| Thiel 2.3--bright or harsh ? I have Thiel 3.6's - they aren't bright in the least but I've got lots of ss power and warm tube amp (classe ca200 and cj pre). I've also got meridian digital which isn't in your face at all, very unfatiguing. They are the most tonally correct spe... |
