| Thiel Owners ^I don't see a 4 Ohm spec for the A32.4 on Primare's web site, do you know what it is? | |
| Thiel Owners oblgny, I've heard the other arguments, but I steadfastly believe that "backasswards" is exactly how you should build a system! Starting with knowing how much of the contents of the billfold in your back pocket your willing to depart with, to the ... | |
| Thiel Owners ^Not at all surprised that the AR pre imparts less warmth than the c-j pre.I too am a Pass fan. Perhaps you might enjoy Pass's previous products: Threshold. Which were reputed to be used by Jim Thiel when developing these earlier Thiels (& Pas... | |
| Thiel Owners I suppose the MF200 would sort of qualify. I'm a fan of c-j ss. I ran an MF 80 with CS 2's (Thiel's easiest load) when I had a smaller room years ago. The c-j's don't quite double down the same way, and the bass isn't quite as tight. A small bit o... | |
| Thiel Owners oblgny, At the risk of appearing petty, the 3.5's come with an external equalizer or bass booster not a cross-over. Though the smooth impedance rise with it's insertion mitigates its total demand on amplifiers, it does put added demands on amplifi... | |
| Vintage Krell Amp... Which would you choose? jmcgrogan2, FYI:http://www.stereophile.com/content/krell-ksa-250-power-amplifier-when-class-class | |
| Thiel 1.6 vs 3.6 in Small(ish) Room Neither. While I generally prefer floorstanders to monitors with stands, in such a small room, I think the smaller Thiels with Thiel's own concentric drivers ( like the MCS ) might work better. | |
| Vintage Krell Amp... Which would you choose? KMA 400's | |
| Thiel Owners The bottom placement of the speaker terminals might be nuisance when auditioning cables, but once one's decided upon their favorite cables, I find their unobtrusive appearance and the hidden from children, pets, etc. a bonus. I would think again a... | |
| Thiel Owners Pops, thanks, but perhaps except for the long wall placement; it's more like reading the manual :-). I have tried other placements, the Dunlavy approach was especially insightful, but Thiel's recommendations seems to work best, at least for me. | |
| Thiel Audio Contact?? http://www.thielaudio.com | |
| Thiel Owners dar57, Most rooms vary enough, that there are no hard rules. My room is very similar to yours, though I do have a rather high ceiling.I prefer the long wall placement when it can work. I have my Thiel's backs out 3' from the wall behind them, 10' ... | |
| What's up with the ridiculous offers?!? "Thank you, no". | |
| How important is customer service in your decision to pick an audio product (company)? Very. I've discounted consideration of some products due to complaints about customer service. | |
| Thiel Owners Maplegrovemusic, ones room and listening position will ultimately determine speaker positioning. The Thiels are very accurate off axis to begin with, and straight ahead positioning can help provide a wide soundstage as well as negate some brightne... |
