| Thiel Owners @arvincastroWhat linestage did you end up with? I'm looking at Aesthetix and Audio Research for the same reasons as you stated.@thielrulesI'm in Seattle and have a pair of 2.7's that I'd be willing to submit to testing. | |
| Aesthetix Calypso Signature to Eclipse @ejholtom Did you get your Aesthetix piece upgraded? What were you using before you picked up the Aesthetix? I'm looking to add a tube pre to my setup and Aesthetix is at the top of the list. Currently I'm using a MSB Analog as DAC/pre. | |
| Thiel Owners Also thanks to everyone who is involved in keeping Thiel alive on this forum and elsewhere! | |
| Thiel Owners @arvincastro regarding Class D amps - I have a pair of the Bel Canto REF600M monos. My initial impression driving either 2.7's or 3.6's wasn't favorable and I believe this was due to a poor match with other associated components. At the time eve... | |
| Thiel Owners Regarding the differences between the 2.3 and 2.4.I would really like to put the 2.3 next to the 2.4 next to the 2.7 and listen to the difference. I have 1.6, 2.7, and 3.6 and enjoy them all immensely however have not had the opportunity to hear ... | |
| Thiel Owners If anyone is interested there are a pair of 2.2's in black at Hawthorne Stereo in Seattle. One of the woofers shows evidence of re-gluing the surround. The passive radiators show signs of delamination as well. | |
| Thiel Owners @thielrules - popping a beer and sitting down to read your paper | |
| Thiel Owners thielrulesfor a fair amount of material w/o measuring anything I am forced to agree with you. I should be thorough in my posts as the devil is in the details!for the most part I listen to large scale works where there are large dynamic as well as... | |
| Thiel Owners ovinewarI went from a Bryston 3B ST to a pair of 7B ST's. The difference was night and day and the 3B is no slouch. I'm running the 7B in parallel mode driving a pair of 2.7's.hth | |
| Thiel Owners @arvincastroRegarding Class D amps - I have a pair of the Bel Canto REF600M's. I've tried them on my 3.6's and 2.7's. I didn't care for them when compared to the Krell TAS (3.6's) and Bryston 7BST parallel mode (2.7's). I've since changed cable... | |
| Thiel Owners @batmanfanRegarding the pre/pro I've been running a Mytek Brooklyn+ providing signal to a pair of Bryston 7BST monoblocks which are powering a pair of 2.7's.Mainly classical and jazz with a fair bit of rock.The Mytek can convert DSD,DXD,MQA, etc e... | |
| Thiel Owners @jserio If I didn't have a pair of 2.7's I'd be all over those!Cable Update:Krell TAS --> DH Labs Q10 --> Thiel 3.6Bryston 7B-ST (Parallel Mode) --> ELF Custom Silver Surfers --> Thiel 2.7This is the best results that I have gotten so ... | |
| Thiel Owners Another vote for the Bryston 7B ST monos with Thiels.I have recently acquired a pair of the last design of the 7BST before they released the SST series.They are running in parallel mode driving a pair of 2.7's with excellent results. | |
| Help choosing an amp for Thiel 2.7s A little late to this thread.I picked up a pair of the Bryston 7BST amps and am running them in parallel mode to drive a pair of 2.7's with excellent results. Previously I was using a Bryston 3B NRB and the difference between that and the 7B mono... | |
| Mark Levinson 333.5 vs Emotiva XPR-1 Monoblocks @levchappy what did you end up doing? I'm looking at amps for my 3.6's as well. Currently I am using a Krell TAS in stereo mode. |
