| Thiel is officially closed!! i am very pleased to read all the comments above and also to read that Rob is going to keep things going. I would suspect that there is no more coverage under warranty given that he is essentially starting a new biz, but i for one am just grate... | |
| Thiel Owners just saw this and wanted to share. not surprising.https://www.strata-gee.com/thiel-toast/ | |
| Thiel Owners you are welcome. wish we could post pics here. I like Mapleshade products and my rack is the Samson rack which is pretty awesome and actually a good deal for what you get. I would also use the platforms under my speakers but to get that size i... | |
| Thiel Owners " BTW...I tried some Iso Acoustic Iso-Pucks under one of my Thiel 2.7s tonight.Some here probably know Iso Acoustics products are all the rage these days in terms of speaker stands/isolation and their Gaia series speaker footers seem beloved."I... | |
| Thiel Owners thanks to those responding to my posts about the drivers failing. both times it was the midrange part of the driver that failed but of course the entire unit had to be replaced which is not hard to do. the first time was only about two months a... | |
| Thiel Owners as a Thiel owner of over 30 years, starting with the CS 2 and ending with the 2.7's, i can attest to how great they really are. however i have had issues with the mid/tweeter drivers of the 2.7's, and have had to replace two of them. Luckil... | |
| Full-sounding SS amps (besides Pass) @mysticriver. glad to hear it. i too think it a no-brainer with the DSD DAC. however because of the playback quality of cds through the DMP, i have yet to go to ripping. maybe some day. I still have about 600 albums and a very old and love... | |
| Full-sounding SS amps (besides Pass) @Mysticriver. greetings and let me say how sorry i am about the events you had to deal with. I think losing my audio system would be the worst thing second only to losing my dogs. How did your physical music collection fair though all this? R... | |
| Full-sounding SS amps (besides Pass) goodness i am surprised that no one has yet listed one of the greatest SS amps on the market, and it is a real bang for the buck. that amp is the PS Audio BHK amp. i have owned many amps over the years and this is the best ever. Plus they buil... | |
| I love my PS Audio Direct Stream with Red Cloud :) As someone who is in the clothing business, my technical knowledge of some of the things mentioned above is pretty limited. that said, i have been into and enjoying good home high end audio since the mid seventies. I have a system that is 100%... | |
| Thiel Owners PS: as i mentioned in an earlier post, i have a set of Sound Anchors that i used with the 2.2 series and think they would work on the 2 series as well. would be happy to send pics and measurements if requested. I would be happy to sell them as... | |
| Thiel Owners hi Jafant, thanks for your kind remarks. I started with the 2 series in 1985 after selling a pair of Infinity 2.5 speakers. they were like a mini mini version of the IRS. In 1992 got the 2.2's. kept them for about 15 years and got the 2.4's i... | |
| Thiel Owners jut in case someone needs this info thought i would post it.Hi Kent, I have examined the CS2.7 coax that you returned. The failure mode was a buzz generated by the midrange cone. Upon closer inspection I found one of the joints between the dia... | |
| Thiel Owners me again. i am suffering from the mid sixties disease CRS. I realized i have posted here before so my first statement above was not correct. | |
| Thiel Owners hi guys, great reading and thanks to all. this is my first time posting on this thread but wanted to add my 2.7 cents so to speak. i have owned every generation of the 2 series since 1986. 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, and now 2.7. Each upgrade was wel... |
