| Thiel Owners tomthiel,I'm only 70, so you have two extra years of knowledge acquisition compared to me. Hope you keep letting interesting ideas seep in. Thanks for the thoughts about my 8m cable runs. I've been worried about the long speaker cables, but I can'... | |
| Thiel Owners jafant,Yes, some of the Synergistic Research products seem too good - or too weird - to be true. I'd have to be working with a friendly dealer to even try them. The latest SR product I tried was a USB cable that was among a group of 5 USB cables f... | |
| Thiel Owners tomthiel,I am always amazed at the depth of your knowledge of areas in audio where my knowledge is so much more superficial. I'm looking forward to the possibility of upgrading my CS 2.2s when options are available. As I mentioned earlier, the 2.2... | |
| Thiel Owners jafant,Please continue to keep us up-to-date on your cable search. I have to admit that I have not had much luck with Synergistic Research for interconnects or USB cables in comparative demos I've done in my system. However, I know others who love... | |
| Thiel Owners jafant,I am impressed by your patience in your search for the best cables for your system. As I face my rapidly advancing years, I am finding myself becoming less and less patient in making decisions about my audio gear. I've come to realize that ... | |
| Thiel Owners jafant,How is your cable quest going? Have you made any decisions or narrowed down choices? | |
| Help setting up nework for Zenith mk3 arriving next week rc22,Yes, please report back on your findings if you get the ENO filter. I'm still not sure how much I should explore experimentation with lots of little boxes with expensive power supplies, though. I'm pretty sure I will eventually try the Innuos... | |
| Help setting up nework for Zenith mk3 arriving next week @antigrunge2,Thanks for the suggestion regarding the isolator. Right now, I'm more concerned about making sure my ethernet connection is good and then seeing if I need to do anything more about the USB connection. Given that the Innuos Zen is alre... | |
| Help setting up nework for Zenith mk3 arriving next week rc22,Like your ethernet connection, mine is pretty simple. I have an Innuos Zen Mk3 in my living room that is connected to a Netgear router in my basement. I'm using 50 feet of BJC Cat-6a with no switches or wall plates in between. I connect the Z... | |
| Thiel Owners Just as a note of caution, the direct correlation between SINAD and overall sound quality for amps and DACs has not been established, and I would be careful not to believe everything that Audio Science Review says or implies. Over-interpreting sma... | |
| Point of higher priced streamer? As you have discovered, you will get different opinions on ASR and Audiogon in response to your question about whether there is a point to buying a higher priced streamer.Here on Agon, you have heard either that (1) all streamers should pretty muc... | |
| Thiel Owners I've been enjoying the comments and historical perspectives from @unsound and @tomthiel regarding the 3.5s and Thiel's efforts at creating solid and marketable bass. Although I generally like sealed boxes for producing tight bass, I have to agree ... | |
| Thiel Owners I like the satin black finish as well. My satin black Thiel sub is beautiful. | |
| Thiel Owners I want to support prof's comments about using tube gear with the 3.7s. I've noticed than ronkent hasn't responded to this discussion yet, but I remember that he was very happy with the sound from his 3.7s when they were driven by a PS Audio BHK Pr... | |
| Thiel Owners I've been looking at getting a streamer/server and have also heard concerns expressed about the Lumin streamers tending toward the dry/analytic side. I spoke to a dealer who sells both Lumin and Innuos gear, and the dealer recommended a Lumin stre... |
