| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? Unless it helps us deal with "matching" drift, though I'm not sure that is constant across frequency either. | |
| Lightspeed Attenuator - Best Preamp Ever? The more I think about this, I'm not sure how balance control really helps with room or hearing asymmetries as the asymmetry is not constant across the frequency spectrum, that dips and crests in dBs are widely different based on the frequency res... | |
| Pre-amp suggestions for Thiel 2.4/Pass Labs XA30.5 Al, do you think that McIntosh is on too something that other SS folks are not addressing? Obviously they have been doing this for a long time - is it a difference that makes a difference and all towards the positive, or a just a tradeoff like so ... | |
| Pre-amp suggestions for Thiel 2.4/Pass Labs XA30.5 "but I thought the use of autoformers prevented doubling down into halve impedance's?"

| Pre-amp suggestions for Thiel 2.4/Pass Labs XA30.5 "without good solid bass response the Thiels can sound a bit tipped up." Explains a lot of the stereotype, but also what some swear by Theil as among the best speakers ever made - got to have the right amp:) | |

| Pre-amp suggestions for Thiel 2.4/Pass Labs XA30.5 Yes, I was mighty impressed with the ARC VT100, and I assume the Ref 110 would be better yet. ARC seems to also work well with Maggies - so difficult loads and tube amps that do seem to work well. I have never heard the combination, nor heard othe... | |
| Pre-amp suggestions for Thiel 2.4/Pass Labs XA30.5 I bet the Belles MB-200 Monoblocks up for sale right now would drive the heck out of them. | |
| Let's hear from Long Time Owners Like the universe, our audio world expands till one day it contracts to simplicity, fewer pieces, less power, and more enjoyment. Seems to be a very common trait, not driven by economics, but a truth that comes with alot of experience with the hob... |
