| Thiel Owners hi Arnie, the person you got them from had the same problem i had with mine when i first got them. i thought, my goodness these are not near as good as my 2.7's. they were just as he described and i was not sure i would keep them. now afte... | |
| Thiel Owners hi Arnie, i suspect i need to bring my settings down but i would encourage you to raise yours. i had some correspondence with John Hunter of REL and he gave me a rough idea of what he thought i should set the crossover at. read below starting ... | |
| Thiel Owners hi Batman, good to hear from you. glad my response got you into this group. i have learned so much from reading all this and it is great to discuss our wonderful speakers with fellow Thiel lovers. I use the BHK electronics from PS Audio a... | |
| Thiel Owners hi arniespin, i have the SHO s/5 and it is a killer sub. the REL guy was here last week for a demo and said it was the sweet spot of their audio oriented subs. i will check my settings later but have them much higher than you do. | |
| Thiel Owners I have a friend/dealer (the only one in NC that sells Magico) and heard the A3 speakers recently. I think they retail for about 10K and not $223 but glad the 3.7's can hold their own. Recently heard some bigger ones (about $28K) and they were ve... | |
| Thiel Owners @wayneuncle i am no expert on subs but have had really good results with the REL s/5 SHO. if you get a sub, try to get the dealer to come and set it up | |
| Thiel Owners @prof i would really be interested in some recommendations for electronic music. do not have much but my favorite album is underwater sunlight by Tangerine Dream. thanks in advance | |
| Thiel Owners well us A'gon guys will be most interested in how your speakers evolve and i appreciate what you are doing. i had 2.4's before getting the 2.7's and the 2.7's were better for sure. but with the mods to your speakers, i bet you have closed the ... | |
| Thiel Owners hi Beetle, maybe you should buy my 2.7's :) | |
| Thiel Owners from an email from Rob G: The stabilizer pins are an internal part of the CS3.7, and should show some improvements with them in place. Especially in the bass region. The important thing is that the speakers are making contact with the sub-fl... | |
| Thiel Owners @tomthiel wow that is so interesting. i understand your love of the 2.2's. I owned those from 1991-2007 (2.0 series before and 2.4 after) and they were the ones that really hooked me on the Thiel brand. I have yet to own any of the others... | |
| Thiel Owners hi Tom and Jafant, this thread gets better and better. thank you all so much. I would, from my experience with both brass feet from mapleshade, and the GAIA feet, try them in your system. i liked the brass feet a lot, and my girlfriend pre... | |
| Thiel Owners thanks guys for the input | |
| Thiel Owners I am curious since we are on the subject of various support devices for the speakers. Has anyone tried comparing the sound with and without the outriggers that Thiel provided? also i found this which sure looks interesting if one has an extra ... | |
| Thiel Owners @prof I would try the GAIA feet as Music Direct offers a 100% refund if not happy. i think they are very different in design from the isopucks and should work much better. I like my ears about 4" below the tweeter and here is something i copie... |
