| Thiel CS 3.6 amplifier selection Monarchy SM 70? I respectfully disagree with Kenny. Sure you'll get sounds from the Thiels with such an amp, but you won't get all the Thiels are capable of unless you get a more appropriate amp for the speakers. | |
| Speaker appearance verses musicality. Glad you brought this up. I've been wondering about the same thing for years. If I ever (doubtful) build my own speakers, I think this is the approach I'll take. I think it would be a lot easier, less expensive and sound better. | |

| Why the obsession with the lowest octave Some rooms just can accommodate low bass, and when presented with it, don't know what to do with it. | |
| Why the obsession with the lowest octave The same could be said for the highest octave. As for me, I disagree. Yes, I know most music (about 80%), is in the midrange, but I want it all, and miss it when it's gone. I suggest getting as much of the music that's on the recording as your bud... | |
| BDP 93 or BDP 95? More slam dunks from OPpo? Blindjim, will the next format have glassless 3D on some kind of non mechanical memory drive? | |
| Hi efficient speaker, bass problems Tmsorosk, If I understand you correctly, I hear the same thing, you are not alone. | |
| Is 11' distance from projector screen too close? Don't bother keying the link that wouldn't come up as a hyper-link. Use Byron's hyper-link, it's the same. | |
