| Best affordable amp for Thiel CS3.6 Tom, you are very intuitive. That was exactly my point. Mind you there are some very good deals on the used market. Your current budget may force compromises. For just a little bit more money you can get the level of finess that will be a forward ... | |

| Ohm I speaker upgrade?? Johnymac, I don't now or ever have owned Ohm speakers. From what I understand Ohm no longer has the qualified people to make the original and unique Walsh drivers that were used in the earlier Ohm speakers. The replacements drivers they are curren... | |
| Best affordable amp for Thiel CS3.6 OK Tom, bear in mind that a lot of this is subject a lot of personal biases. I love the Krell on Thiels. IMHO they are not nearly as bright and lean as some make them out to be. While the McCormacks have nice tight bass and smooth liquid highs, I ... | |
| Ohm I speaker upgrade?? I strongly suggest you check the archives before "upgrading" your Ohm drivers. You might be in for a surprise. | |
| What can the average enthusiest do to get A+ HT? Slappy, I can understand the reality that both you and Sean bring to point about video soundtrack vs. music playback, but, I don't understand the philosphy.

| My vote for Tweak of the Week With all due respect, I think $485 for a laquered wooden knob with a brass insert is a bit rich. I'm not handy, but, I suspect one could visit Home Depot, spend a little time and save $475. Heck, that's more than the cost (used) of some complete h... | |
| Which solid state amp loves a 4 ohm load? It's comforting to read that I'm not the only one who likes the X series. I was starting to doubt myself. | |
| Noise from tweeter I don't know from personal experience, but, it's reputed that speakers hooked up to digital amps don't demonstrate this propensity for ear to tweeter hiss. | |
| Best female vocals on CD I don't know about best, but, I'd like to add Nancy Wilson. I can't believe this is the first time I've seen this thread. | |
| Which solid state amp loves a 4 ohm load? I was under the impression that Nelson Pass recommended his 3 stage Alephs for loads below 4 Ohms but not his 2 stage Alephs. As for me, I must be the odd bird here who prefers the sound of the X series (which with out regard to power requirements... | |
| What can the average enthusiest do to get A+ HT? Brainwater, thanks for your well wishes, but, I wouldn't hold your breath.Sean, those were dealers full list prices. I'm from Brooklyn, we don't don't pay list for anything! Still I find less money spent on 2 channel (I would consider three if stu... |
