If you guys are looking for 2.7s there is a pair available in France just like new

Like @jafant said gear matching is the key and i can tell you guys that the Diablo 300 is really not a good match for Thiels, the tweeters will let you know. Even with Cardas cabling it didn't tame the treble so i got fed up and sold my Diablo 30...

@halifax  You should demo Cardas Clear Reflexion if you can get some on loan, best ones i can think of for Thiel speakers. You can probably find them used.    
DCS Network Bridge? Aqua LinQ Streamer?
@designsfx  Yes i also still have my LinQ - Formula Rev 2 combo. I use them paired with a fanless Roon Rock NUC powered by a Farad Super 3 LPS. What's new in my system well i sold my Gryphon Diablo 300 and replaced it by a Vitus SIA-025 Mk2. My...

Thanks guys for your input on the correction filters. Did any of you Thiel lovers had the chance to own a pair of ML 20.5 or 20.6 ? I know a guy in Northern France who drives his CS 6s with ML 20.5 must be spectacular.

Did any of you 2.7 and 3.7 owners try the midrange/trebel region correction filter that is available on Ebay ?

@ronkent I agree it will be very difficult to find an integrated that can equal your pre-power. The only one i can think of that i demoed in my system is the Audionet Humboldt but it is uber expensive.

@ronkent I've owned the Diablo 300 during a year with my 3.7s and didn't like the presentation at all. Its was pretty harsh sounding and the bass was lean. I now use a Vitus SIA-025 Mk2 which is class A, this integrated is in a different league ...

@ronkent  Can you please let us know if you had the right threading included in your Gaia kit for the 3.7 outriggers. I would also like to try the Gaia ll footers eventually.

I'm probably going to the crossover upgrade on my 3.7s next year, it is really worth it if you plan on keeping them for many more years.  
Qln, Joseph Audio, Audiovector, Marten, or Canton...?
I've heard the Joseph Perspective 2 paired with Vitus RI-101 Mk2 integrated amp. Very engaging speakers and very impressive bass for the size. Definitely a great speaker that i would consider.

@ronkent  Didn't you lose any bass with the Gaia footers under your 3.7s ? Richer sound is a very good thing for 3.7s as they can sometimes sound lean. Paired with the BHK 300 they must sound fantastic. I will definitely upgrade to monoblocks a...

@dr3 What amp are you using to drive your 3.7s ? It is indeed pretty difficult to get good bass with 3.7s if your amp doesn't deliver enough current. A good pair of high current monoblocks is usually what works best.  
Qobuz or Tidal?
I started with Qobuz a couple of years ago but decided to add Tidal because some titles were missing in Qobuz. If you can afford it better to have both IMO. I mostly do streaming with a Roon Rock NUC and HQPlayer core.

@dr3 A friend of mine told me i might lose some bass if i use Gaia footers. Since they are not cheap i'm not willing to take the risk. Any thoughts ?
