| Thiel speaker model range ^The Audiogon community should be thanking you! | |
| Is there any advantage to lower efficiency speakers? 87 or below? A lower sensitivity speaker will block more noise contamination than a higher sensitivity speaker. Often times a speaker designer will sacrifice some sensitivity for other considerations. | |
| Thiel speaker model range Saffrpn_Boots, excellent post is invaluable. I wish Audiogon provided a "sticky" option for it. Just as an FYI, it's not really a complete list, as the pre CS series, SCS models, sub woofers and post Jim Thiel products, etc. are not included. The ... | |
| Thiel speaker model range Philipsus, it made more (if not total) sense as it was happening in real time. | |
| Thiel speaker model range Pops, I believe the first Thiel with a co-axial driver might have been the CS 2.3, and some of the smaller pre CS series, SCS, MCS and sub-woofer lines might not qualify as having sloped baffles. | |
| Thiel speaker model range https://bluebook.audiogon.com/brands/thiel-audio...is basically a list of (true) Thiel's until just shortly after the founders passing and subsequent sale of his company's name (his own surname). Later and current Thiel's , with very different des... | |

| Thiel Owners I seriously doubt that Thiel had a patent on 1st order cross-overs. There might be others, but the only patents Thiel had that I know of in audio were with re: to subwoofer room proximity signal to amp adjustment. | |
| Pass amps can they handle a highly reactive speaker load? It depends on the Pass Labs model. Some of the Pass Labs Aleph models were unsuitable for such a load. Other Aleph models might be good. Most of the X series should be good. I too am a fan of a lot of Nelson Pass's work, and it's a become a tad c... | |
| Dark Amplifier Electrocompaniet. | |
| Time for a new tube system. ^I agree with the gist of Atmasphere's post above. I suggest that the OP consider ss amplification for use with B&W's. | |
| Pass Labs I would imagine that the price of some of the Pass Labs amps might be more affordable if they did away with those meters. I sometimes wonder if Pass Labs gets a "pass" when it comes to how often there gear measures up short of their own specs w... | |
