| Thiel Owners @yyzsantabarbara Yes the Diablo 300 is very easy to resale and i'm very familiar with the Gryphon house sound.But since i'm not in a hurry i can still investigate on the Coda pre-power.Please report back when you will have auditioned the 16.0.I w... | |
| Thiel Owners I'd love to audition the Coda 16.0 with it's 07x preamp but very difficult to find a dealer anywhere near me.This combo could be a good alternative to the Diablo 300 for me.Problem is that the Coda combo is not cheap and the Diablo 300 can be had ... | |
| Thiel Owners Anyone using Coda amps with Thiel speakers ?I'm looking at the new Coda 16.0 and 41.0 stereo for CS 3.7s.Would the 16.0 be the best match for 3.7s with up to 100w in class A and very high current.Class A vs monster class AB with the 41.0 that is ... | |
| Compatible Speakers for a Coda Thiel CS 3.7 is a great match for Coda amps. | |
| Luxman M900U any experience ? @incision If you can have the C-900U on loan that would be great before making a decision.But yes the TT2 is not up to the task to drive a M-900U, you really need to demo the matching preamp. | |
| Luxman M900U any experience ? I have the TT2 but mostly used in my headphone rig and in DAC mode to send music to my Dynaudio Xeo 3 wireless speakers.You should get the C-900U, that would make a big difference. | |
| Thiel Owners If Jim was still alive we would have had CS 7.3s, if i recall it was in his plans. | |
| Gryphon vs. McIntosh Mcintosh is midfi compared to Gryphon it's as simple as that.Gryphon can only be compared to CH Precision, Boulder, Audionet, Robert Koda, Dan d'Agostino, Pilium, Soulution, Nagra, Spectral, Technical Brain, Dartzeel and a couple of others. | |
| Thiel Owners @yyzsantabarbara I'm also going to get a R2R DAC and the one on my shortlist for my Thiel rig is the Aqua Formula xHD v2.Check out Totaldac they make very analogue sounding R2R Dacs too. | |
| Thiel Owners I was looking at Hegel H590, would be interesting to try this one out with 3.7s.It also has a buildt in DAC for people who want a very simple rig. | |
| Gryphon Diablo 250 vs Hegel390 Hegel has a very good price to performance ratio.For someone with low budget and who wants to buy new, Hegel is a great choice. | |
| Is there a Solid State amp that can satisfy a SET guy? Only Robert Koda Takumi K-160 can beat just about any tube amps in existence. | |
| Gryphon Diablo 250 vs Hegel390 @greg_f Absolutely it's a different animal. | |
| Amp upgrade for Thiel CS 3.7 Jim would have been blown away if the Antileon Evo existed at the time he was designing the 3.7s. | |
| Amp upgrade for Thiel CS 3.7 There is no way old Krell design could compete with todays Gryphon gear in terms of sound quality.Gryphon was most likely not available in the US when Jim was still alive.At the time it was either Krell or Bryston you didn't have much choice for T... |
