| Thiel Owners @prof i too agree with the speakers ability to disappear, but then that has been a hallmark of the speakers since i started with them way back.one suggestion i have for those willing to experiment, is try some of the feet from GAIA. i liked the... | |
| Thiel Owners @jafant greetings, i am not sure of the cables but i know he likes Clarus. the Magico guy was there to make sure it was done right. they are probably the most accurate speaker i have ever heard, but again, they are in another price league fr... | |
| Thiel Owners thanks Beetle: i will wait and see what TT comes up with. I am guessing i could swap out the entire crossover easier than changing parts but not sure. truthfully it sounds great right now but i am going to keep my eyes and ears open for the TT u... | |
| Thiel Owners @dancastagna. greetings. i have been using the 2.7's for the last three plus years, and just now am replacing with 3.7's. they are not bright speakers but also are not going to whitewash a bright source. I think you will love the speakers and... | |
| Thiel Owners @beetlemania PS: i am sure you have told us, but what speaker do you have. | |
| Thiel Owners @beetlemania you are welcome. this sure is a fun but challenging hobby. I agree with your statements about punching above their weight class. The Magicos are so well designed with one of the most rigid cabinets on the market and I think on... | |
| Thiel Owners hi guys, well i went and heard the Magicos (the ones that sell for right at 30K) and they were very very impressive. they were driven by VTL electronics and they were streaming using a Berkeley DAC. the sound was amazingly clear, like a set of... | |
| Thiel Owners thanks Prof. i am a bit intimidated by the crossovers so opted for REL. Plus the fact that Paul at PS Audio swears by them | |
| Thiel Owners Prof: boy will i be interested in your take on the Magicos. They are so well built and i am going tomorrow to the same place and hear a demo by the Magico guy. They sure seem very free of any coloration's based on my very short listening time. | |
| Thiel Owners hi Prof, REL takes a totally different approach to subs than JL. I am no expert and am not very technically literate, but one of my takeaways today was that REL does not like the outboard crossovers that do what the JL does. they want the ... | |
| Thiel Owners Prof: i think that mid bass bloom is very addictive and i can see why she likes it. but i find the articulation is better on the bigger ones and they do go deeper with less effort. either speaker is amazing. I heard a system today with a pai... | |
| Thiel Owners hi Prof, boy it has been an interesting six weeks since i first got them. first week or so, they were not very good. they have improved enough that i prefer the sound of them over the 2.7's. for a point of reference i would assign the 2.7's a ... | |
| Thiel Owners just wanted to let everyone know i just posted my 2.7's for sale. it was a tough call between them and the new 3.7's (my girlfriend likes the 2.7's better), but ultimately i think the 3.7's are a better speaker. | |
| Thiel Owners hi Prof and Jafant: my email address is kent@thehubltd.com if either of you would like to write directly. Kent | |
| Thiel Owners Hi Prof, yes i have followed your post with great interest because i also have both. my 3.7's are new from Rob and they have been breaking in. at first, not so good, but now they are really coming alive. your comment about them doing everyt... |
