That Transformational piece of Gear We All Wish For We are blessed that we were able to find these pieces of gear. i bet that VK 255SE is fantastic. For 2025, i am contemplating their new REX 300 SS amp but i have to start saving for sure. | |
That Transformational piece of Gear We All Wish For i am so amazed by the improvement the BAT VK80 wrought, that i am now considering one of their SS amps for 2025. I do not mind tubes in a pre-amp, but do not want to go tubes in an amp. i do agree with immathewj that a new piece can be a bit o... | |
That Transformational piece of Gear We All Wish For they sure do make a difference. | |
Thiel Owners JA asked me to share my thoughts on the new preamp i got a few weeks ago. so here goes: I also posted it as a separate thread. That Transformational piece of Gear We All Wish For I suspect most of the music/audio lovers on this web site have ... | |
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... |
