How Is This Possible? Must be Counterfeits thanks guys. i will check out the other thread. i would never buy from that site but how do we know that when we purchase on this site, that it did not come from them? | |
How Is This Possible? Must be Counterfeits i wonder how many are sold on Agon and UAM and we have no idea that they are fakes? | |
Thiel Owners thanks Guys. mine are toed in maybe 3-5 degrees. the right speaker has nothing beside it to create additional HF. the left speaker has a wall near it but i have a big sound diffusion panel at the first reflection to help. I use a laser level a... | |
Thiel Owners @jafant i am confused. in a post above you said that 3.7's do not require toe in but the above post says that toe in decreases HF energy. that does not compute. | |
The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! hi Santabarbara, I too get a bit of hiss when i put my ear to the speaker but cannot hear it from 8 ft away. the PS BHK preamp was noisier for sure. i recall the Pass XP22 being a bit quieter but it was not a good fit for my system. | |
The new Coda S5.5 amplifier: It's a "Petite Beast"! I would like to add my 2 cents to this thread. I have a Coda 16 amp which i really like and it replaced a set of PS mono blocks. I do not think the 16 is really any better sonically than the PS BHK monos, but I did not want to deal with tubes a... | |
Thiel Owners Greetings Thiel fans, i have been using Thiel speakers since 1986 starting with a pair of 2.0's and am now enjoying a pair of 3.7's that I got from Rob about five years ago. In a very recent correspondence, he suggested that I add some resistor... | |
Your greatest high end audio purchase!!! I am going to cheat and answer this a little differently. I am going to answer the question of "what was the most important audio purchase I ever made"?. The answer was a pair of Thiel 2.0 speakers in 1985. Not that they were all that great bu... | |
Thiel Owners Greetings everyone and happy holidays. I wanted to weigh in with some comments about my new amp and preamp. I recently sold my PS Audio BHK mono blocks and got a Coda 16 amp. The sonic differences were subtle and someone else may prefer the PS amp... | |
Thiel Owners Greetings everyone and Happy Friday. This may surprise a few people, but i got the itch to get a new amp and so am selling my PS Audio BHK 300 mono blocks. if anyone is interested they can PM me. They work great with Thiel speakers for sure a... | |
Used PS Audio Items I too want to chime in on the negative comments about the service by PS Audio. I find them great at CS and have never had an issue. They take care of their customers but there will always be people who are unhappy with them. I run a clothing s... | |
Who has tried one of the PS Audio Power Regenerators? Greetings, I started this thread back in 2019 and wanted to chime in. As I said then, I have been a long time user of the various generations of the PS Power Plants. Someday, just for fun, I may try a Audioquest unit in my system, but ... | |
Thiel Owners hi Jafant, you did warn me about that. Now with the improved sound due to the new DAC, and the potential for updates from Rob and Tom, I suspect i will be a Thiel guy for years to come. I do want to add that without a good pair of subs, th... | |
Thiel Owners hi Everyone, have not posted in a while though i think i did post about this a ways back. Below is new correspondence with Tom Thiel and his response. Hi Tom, I wanted to update you FIVE YEARS LATER as I think this is very useful info for ... | |
Thiel Owners @sdl4 you are most welcome. the original DSD DAC was revelatory and a big improvement on its predecessor, the PWD. the MKII is as big an improvement. the sound was great with the first DSD, but the two things i notice most with the new unit, is bo... |
