| Thiel Owners As someone who has owned the 2 series since 1985, lived with the 2.7's for over 3 years, and now the 3.7's for a few months, i would like to weigh in on the comparison of the two. Boy there are no losers here as both are great and i for one, c... | |
| Thiel Owners hi Frozen, thanks for caring. i have not had a hearing test in about 10 years, but the last time i was shown the results and it was good. I have some minor issue that when the volume gets too high my right ear buzzes a bit. it happens more i... | |
| Thiel Owners more comments from my friend trying the Goertz. Do you know when you hear a match up that is just right? That is what the Goertz / Thiel combo is. I am really surprised they such a good match. You need to try them. They need about 20 hours to... | |
| Thiel Owners I thought the 2.4's were fantastic. enjoy | |
| Thiel Owners hi Tom, my understanding of this is bare bones at best. i did replace a few coaxes and do not remember seeing any with a resistor on the positive terminal. could that be a reason for my proclivity to blow drivers? When i sold my 2.7's i sen... | |
| Thiel Owners thanks Tom, that is interesting if i understand correctly about the resistors. when i sent back the last damaged coax to Rob, he sent the replacement back with a resistor on the positive terminal. to the best of my recollection, none of the ... | |
| Thiel Owners thank you again TT. your input here is so appreciated as is the research you are doing. it is a puzzle to me why i have had bad luck with the coaxes in the 2.7's, and maybe it was a bad batch. i use Analysis Plus speaker cables and they are o... | |
| Thiel Owners i have no knowledge of Luxman but that looks like a beast to beat the band. how much | |
| Thiel Owners good question Prof. | |
| Thiel Owners thanks Tom. i guess i play them too loud but i measured and the average is about 78 db with peaks of 85. plus the PS Audio BHK 250 amp is a hoss. I will have to be more careful but interestingly enough, in the past using lesser amps with the ... | |
| Thiel Owners thank you Tom. maybe you can get Rob to join us here. | |
| Thiel Owners Prof: " Folks, for those who blew drivers, like the 2.7/3.7 coax, what were the sonic symptoms? Did the sound just die? Or did a crackle develop in the sound....something like that?"first time: scratchy sound though i think it was bad from t... | |
| Thiel Owners thanks, but it would be interesting to see who else has had a problem with blown drivers in the x.7 models. i certainly cannot be the only one but maybe i am. i play my music loud but my girlfriend who does not like it too loud, rarely says ... | |
| Thiel Owners okay guys, spill the beans. am i the only one here who has had issues with the coax drivers in the x.7 series. as i mentioned earlier i have had to replace three of them in the 2.7's but none yet in the 3.7's. earlier models never had an iss... | |
| Thiel Owners thank you so much |
