| 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... | |
| Thiel Owners @jafant thanks Man. i figured you might know. I must say that i am amazed at how much better the 3.7's are sounding with the insertion of the new PS Audio DSD DAC II. The sound is so much richer and easier to listen to. it shows how much... | |
| Thiel Owners I am curious. speakers that i hear really good things about are the Focal Sopra's 2 and 3. Does anyone here have any experience with them. In the "looks department", they are far better looking to me than the Magico or Wilson speakers in ... | |
| Thiel Owners Thanks. i have only heard the Diablo driving the Wilson Sabrinas and Sasha DAWs and it seemed to do a great job. someday I may give it a try with whatever speakers i end up with (which could very well be what i already have-the 3.7's) | |
| Thiel Owners @jafant you are most welcome. the thing that many still do not understand is that a good set of sub bass speakers are not just about more bottom. they add a richness and fullness to the sound that is amazing. plus two can really help even out ... | |
| Thiel Owners @solobone22 Greetings. i have been using REL subs very effectively with my Thiel 2.7's and now 3.7's. I have used a few generations but currently am enjoying a pair of S812's. i do find that two work a lot better than one. There is a really ... | |
| Thiel Owners @vair68robert my 3.7's are toed in maybe 1/2" tops. i use a laser beam level and after removing the grills, i put the tool against the front of the speaker and it usually bisects the opposite speaker about 1" back. i want each speaker to be to... | |
| Thiel Owners thanks @thieliste . they seemed to do well with the Wilson speakers. i must admit it would take a lot for me to give up my PS mono blocks and Pass XP22 pre. i just like the idea of a simpler setup with less interconnects, etc. |
