| Is 1990's equipment vintage? The bar can't be stagnant. At some point in time anything that actually plays physical media as we know it will be antique. | |

| Optical Cable recommendations ^What did you order? | |
| Do active speakers interest you? Also, let's talk directivity I like the concept of active speakers, but worry about parts availability and maintenance. I also have a strong preference for sealed vs ported woofers. I think DSP will work better with flush to the wall drivers. | |
| Optical Cable recommendations I don’t really know, but LifatecDH LabsWireworldseem to be recommended the most often. | |
| Thiel Owners @tomthiel, Yes, you would think with quality that originally went into them, that some of the amplifiers on the used market would be especially appreciated at their now discounted prices. Too many are caught up in marketing of the “latest and gre... | |

| Thiel Owners I have no doubt that identical individual amps for each driver would be ideal, especially when one considers the potential of DSP when so configured. I would have preferred 4 Ohm minimum loads. The difference is not as insignificant as might fi... | |
| Thiel Owners ^I agree, when there is no DSP. But, that’s the beauty of DSP, it has the potential to remove those “assumptions” and replace them with real time and space measurements. Problems arise when the those measurements correct the relatively small in vo... | |
| Thiel Owners ^ I would think that the very close (right up against the wall) would really only work with DSP. Without DSP I would think the opposite would be true, Though bass reinforcement and less strain on the amp might be the case against the wall with or... | |
| Levinson 3XX Amplifier Repairs I haven’t much cared for the Levinson house sound compared to their direct competitors, but their long time poor reputation for customer service has kept me from reconsidering their gear for some time now. | |
| Thiel Owners @tomthiel, Perhaps I’m mistaken, but I seem to recall Bryston’s cubed series of amps coming out years later than the 3.7’s? |
