Thiel Customer Service - New ownership is terrible!!! - WHAT HAPPENED TO THIS COMPANY ?
recently had to replace the mid/tweeter on my 2.7's.  rob was very helpful but i did buy a spare just in case. it sucks what this company has done to  a wonderful brand.  i am on my fourth and obviously final set of the  2 series starting way back... 
I need a good Preamp
I have not heard one yet,  but the PS Audio BHK preamp is the only one on my wish list.  I currently run the BHK amp, and use PS Audio's DSD DAC and their new DMP player, so i am a PS guy for sure.  great stuff for the money,  made in the USA,  an...

Best reasonably priced SACD player?
i have now moved into using all PS Audio for the front end (DMP and DSD).But before that i only used Marantz single play units and the best one was the limited edition black pearl.  really great sound.

PS Audio BHK Signature preamplifier

greetings.  i have not read all the way through all the posts, but if  you are looking for a great amp with Thiel,  i have had great success with matching my 2.7's with the new PS Audio BHK amp.  It can handle anything and has a wonderful sound.  ... 
Now it's subs
i am a total novice about subs but just got a REL s/3 and am very pleased with what it adds to the sounds.  so i agree with JKUC above about REL for audio systems.  the funny thing is how much more expansive and full the sound is with the sub.  it...
