| DCS Network Bridge? Aqua LinQ Streamer? @cal3713 d1-streamer is really made to work with d1-direct or d1-Twelve mk2.I would not purchase this streamer if not going full Totaldac all the way.Totaldac is the most analogue sounding DACs i've ever heard and i have heard MSB Select 2 and DC... | |
| Thiel Owners @solobone22 My response was for you sorry lol. | |
| Thiel Owners @yyzsantabarbara Big decision, I'm a big r2r ladder DAC fan therefore the 2 combos i have on my radar are either Aqua Formula xHD + LinQ or Totaldac d1-direct + d1 streamer.A guy that owned the Aqua combo and Totaldac d1-Twelve combo told me the A... | |
| DCS Network Bridge? Aqua LinQ Streamer? Hi guys, i'm looking at Aqua Formula xHD + LinQ as a possible option for my digital.I am very familiar with Totaldac but not Aqua yet.Any idea if Aqua flagship combo would outperform Totaldac d1-direct + d1-streamer ?A guy told me he prefered the ... | |
| Thiel Owners @solobone22 Well i'm thinking of getting 3.7s for the second time and therefore this time i will purchase a used Diablo 300 with Gryphon cabling.Right now i'm looking at different options regarding DACs and streaming gear.Will keep you guys poste... | |
| Thoughts on these speaker brands and models Haley 2.2 are ones i would pick in your list much better than the Vimberg IMO.Best amp for Hailey 2.2s is Audionet Humboldt by a wide margin.You better have a serious budget. | |
| Thiel Owners @yyzsantabarbara I had the same problem when i owned the 3.7s, drove them with a Classe CAP-151 couldn't afford a better amp at the time.The result was pretty disappointing, after 5 years i sold the speakers and gave the Classe amp to my brother.... | |
| Best "Bang for the Buck" you have owned? For me Thiel CS 1.5s. | |
| Thiel Owners I wonder if the CS 1.7s have been popular ?Never heard them yet but all i know is that they are pretty easy to drive and perfect for smaller rooms.How do you guys like them ?I've owned the 1.5s for many years and passed them to my bro last year, h... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. Ok thanks but the thing is that i'm not a fan of Sabre DAC chips like the one used in the Gryphon module, i still much prefer ladder DACs especially the ones from Totaldac that i find the most musical.I also don't like MSB and DCS DACs overpriced ... | |
| Thiel Owners I've said it before but if some of you are looking for great amps that are perfect match for Thiels look for Sugden MP4 monoblocks 165w of pure class A, great mucality.5k used. | |
| Thiel Owners I conquer Thiels need some serious high current amp to drive them, i would avoid the analytical ones and prefer the ones that are full body and organic. | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. The Antileon has the warmest tonality of the Gryphon lineup, it is the most musical of the bunch.It is a big step up compared to the Diablo 300, everything is bigger and fuller.The Mephisto is a Formula one, very different from the ones below.It i... | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. I'd like to know from Diablo 300 owners what they think of the optional DAC module ?Is it better to puchase the Diablo 300 with the DAC module or choose a separate DAC ?Thanks | |
| Gryphon Diablo 300 Has Arrived: First Impressions. @rshad0000 Yes i'm familiar with both the Antileon Evo and the Mephisto stereo.It will come down to what speakers you have.I would recomment the Antileon Evo with speakers that are more anlytical and tend to be bright sounding.The Mephisto is rec... |
