| Considering the New Tekton Design Encores? AND Owners Group - Experiences/Questions These speakers sure are making a splash. It's really intriguing. If only the Tekton designs weren't so huge and ugly, I'd be all over wanting to try them out!Ah well...pity us poor aesthetes... | |
| Thiel CS2.4 to what? audiojan,Yes I hear you on that. I heard the Virgo 2s in quite a few rooms, with various gear, including mine in which I could have lots of space to play with. I tried with tube amps, and powerful Bryston amps. Never truly got rid of the wooli... | |
| Thiel CS2.4 to what? audiofan,I’m a long time Audio Physic fan - have had in my room or owned the Virgo 2, Libra and Scorpio models, as well as having heard plenty other audio physic speakers. (I auditioned the latest Avanti as well this year).I agree, the AP characte... | |
| Does this image give you claustrophobia? Are those McIntosh speakers with the gazillion midrange drivers?Ye gads. I high end store used to sell an expensive iteration of those years ago and they were consistently the most awful sounding speakers in the store. Quality-wise, they reminded... | |
| Thiel Owners andy2,Very interesting post. Thanks. I know what you mean about the "sparkle" that some speakers may have (in this case yours) vs the Thiel sound, and certainly agree on the advantages of the concentric mid/tweeter design.I wonder if you have hea... | |
| Thiel Owners Ok, so it seems the site is buggy for others. Good to know, thanks. | |
| Thiel Owners And ironically, I got the "Sorry something went wrong" messages when I posted the above, even though it posted. | |
| Thiel Owners Is anyone having trouble with the forum being buggy lately?As in pages not loading? (And then after a few tries, loading).This forum has always been the buggiest I've ever encountered, but lately it seems even worse. Anyone else experiencing this? | |
| Can you live with your current speaker until you die? These threads are always fascinating and underline the subjectivity involved in our choices. There are plenty of speakers others here call their last speaker that I could never live with, and that surely is the case with my speakers for other pe... | |
| Thiel Owners Well...trying to keep this related to Thiel...Having recently completed a very extensive auditioning period of a long list of speakers from $6,000 to around $20,000 or more retail (some new, some used), virtually every single one of those speakers... | |
| What Characteristic Strikes You First About Un-amplified Music? Excellent stuff, soix!As it happens, I'm both a fan of Joseph Audio (was planning on the Perspectives) AND I own MBL 121 radialstrahler speakers! (And Thiels, and others...) . So I have a bit of experience comparing these things.As for live vs r... | |
| Thiel Owners jafant,How are your CS 2.4SE's sounding?What is your amp/source? Do you use a digital source or vinyl (or both?)My Thiels have sounded awesome with digital (streamed from a Raspberry Pi server), but adding a great turntable and buying new records... | |
| Thiel Owners andy2,It's an interesting topic and it was a fascinating post. Unfortunately, bringing the cable-burn in debate here is like dropping in to the Thiel thread to start a discussion "Are High End Cables Worth The Money?" or "Do AC Cables Really Make... | |
| Thiel Owners I don't mean to turn this thread into a "component burn in",Then please....don't. | |
| What Characteristic Strikes You First About Un-amplified Music? There certainly are a lot of variables in live sound. But I have to say the impression I have of the bigger sound from live instruments is very consistent almost no matter where I’m hearing them - be it inside, or outside, close or further away.As... |
