| CD's in DVD players a compromise? IMHO Arcam DVD players work quite well with CDs. | |
| Thiel 2.4Special Edition or Marten Form/Dukes? I don't know anything about the Marten speakers, but, I think you'll need a bigger amps for the Thiels if you want then to perform as described. | |
| SF Power 1s with Thiel CS 2.3s Enuf Pwr? 3 Ohms is a tough load for a B&K ST 140. http://www.stereophile.com/amplificationreviews/675/index9.html | |
| Who can convert single ended to balanced? There was a retailer that was making eq replacements for B&W's, I believe it was called something like the "Maughan(?) box". Again this seems to be a dead end. The balanced Golden Flutes seem to be the best option, but I haven't had any luck f... | |
| Who can convert single ended to balanced? JPS made their own eq replacements for various speakers, B&W, Thiel, etc.. When I contacted them, they told me they no longer make them, and very few balanced JPS Golden Flutes were made for Thiel 3.5's. Thanks anyway. | |
| Who can convert single ended to balanced? Swampwalker, I'm waiting for a response from Thiel. My memory is vague on this, but, I think they declined to do it in the past. Thanks anyway. | |
| Power Output of Class "D" amps It appears to me that perhaps, the only real "digital" amps are the TacTs. Then again they might not be amps at all. Or..., I just don't understand them all that well. | |
| Monarchy SE-250's I'm curious too. | |
| Most resolving solid state amp you've ever heard? The amps that come my mind are the: Spectral, Tact and perhaps Spectron. I haven't had the opprotunity to hear enough of it to make a real determination, but the TacT is the only one I would personally consider. | |
| Best sounding Krell ? "lacks finesse and texture" Your right, "That, of course, is subjective and one person's opinion." I find Krell's power amplifiers not only handle macro-dynamics well, but, micro-dynamics (finesse and handling?) as well, if not better than most ot... | |
| Companies with good customer service? Thiel! | |
| Speaker advice Ferrari nailed it. Do keep in mind that (at least IMHO) the Vandy's are very room sensitive, for point source dynamic speakers. | |
| Krell or Anthem ??? As much as I like Krell's power amplifiers, I've been underwhelmed by their intergrateds. | |
| Wilson better than Thiels? "casual vocals and light instrumental music"? I suggest you let the reader, or better yet the listener, decide for themsleves. | |
| SF Power 1s with Thiel CS 2.3s Enuf Pwr? I'm not familiar with the B&K ST-180. If it is like other B&K ST models such as the ST-140, I think you'll find that these amplifiers don't really work that well with speakers that have impedance loads like the Thiels. The B&K M series... |
