| Thiel Owners Wow! Terrific information Tom! Thanks so much.As I've written, when I hear so many other speakers they still haven't seem to have caught up to what Jim achieved. And it's wonderful that Rob's service will be available to us Thiel owners. Now y... | |
| Help! Tweaking My Lovan Rack for new Big A**ed Transrotor Turntable! Folks,New question:I have a bunch of new gear to accommodate in my rack, which means moving things around. I need a new shelf for my Benchmark DAC.I just realized that there is actually space for the DAC in between the top of my Lovan rack and th... | |
| Any of you experiment with optimal VTA for Benz Micro Cartridges @artemus_5 I just noticed your additional post. Thanks again for that info! | |
| More Bad News AT Thiel Link no longer worky, jon.I wonder when the main page will disappear? | |
| Thiel Owners Thanks again ish_mail ! | |
| Thiel Owners Beetlemania,I've always liked closer - takes out more of the room, tonality smoother, speakers soundstage/disappear more, etc.More distance generally means tighter images, brighter more lively sound. I play with both, but tend to end up trying to... | |
| Thiel Owners beetlemania,I'm always looking for the most immersive sound I can get, while not sacrificing image density.For whatever reason, the 3.7s can be spread ridiculously wide and still have focused images.The 2.7s, which are the next version of your 2.4... | |

| Thiel Owners It's nice, if melancholy at the time, to notice the old Thiel Web Blog is still accessible. Tons of entries from when "Thiel was Thiel."http://thielaudio.blogspot.ca/The announcement of Jim's passing, with plenty of warm and interesting comments:... | |
| Thiel Owners I have to say I was made so anxious reading the news about Thiel last night I actually had trouble sleeping until I found out whether Rob would still be servicing/providing drivers.I’ve spent all too much time agonizing over which Thiels to keep, ... | |
| Thiel Owners Good news for Thiel owners!Yesterday after the news about Thiel closing, I’d sent Rob Gillum an email inquiring about about replacement drivers for my 2.7s.I received his reply today.Rob will be taking over the THIEL Service department - as previo... | |
| Thiel is officially closed!! BTW, Rob Gillum returned my reply and...whew!..he is indeed taking over the THIEL Service department and service will continue to be available for legacy Thiels. | |
| Thiel is officially closed!! beetlemania,Yes, Phil's reference to a 10" woofer had confused me. Thiel's own literature on the 2.7 state an 8" woofer. (I would open up my 2.7 grills and confirm, except that I've got them fitted so perfectly they are a bit hard to take off).... | |
| Anybody Listen Voxativ? Voxativ speakers have intrigued me for quite a while. I've been doing lots of speaker demoing this year and Voxatic are on the short list of speakers I haven't heard yet but would love to. Unfortunately, no dealers anywhere near me. |
