| amp for vandersteens Yes, they are very accommodating of a large selection of amps.I’ve long held that on absolute terms the PSE and McCormack amps were especially good matches for them. That they were also an outstanding value combination was secondary. Regretfully t... | |

| Thiel Owners @tmsrdg, Thiel recommends as little as 100 Watts for the 3.7’s. IMHO, the 200 minimum you suggested might work better. As I’ve suggested in the past, those are standard 8 Ohm power ratings that should be doubled down with actual minimum impedance. | |

| Thiel Owners @tmsrdg, re: Spectral and Thiel, the specs you posted are a bit off for both brands. Both brands are a bit better than posted. From a technical standpoint though not quite absolutely ideal they should be an appropriate, adequate combination so lon... | |
| Any love for newer Krell amps? Well, with the newer models, the expensive heat sinks of some of the more recent previous models have been replaced with fans, many don’t double down into 4 Ohms, and none are rated into 2 Ohms anymore. | |
| Thiel Owners Some cable measurements such as capacitance can be quite helpful for determining suitability in a given system. | |
| Low-sensitivity speakers — What's special about them? With the vast majority of typical speakers one can make a speaker's impedance more linear by lowering it's impedance, which can allow amplifiers to provide a more linear frequency response through those speakers. But doing so will decrease the spe... | |
| Free Lead Shot in Portland, OR (125 lbs) I'm confident the OP had good intentions, but an offer of free hazardous material is of questionable value.I suggest everyone take a pass. | |
| Thiel CS1.2 vs. Ohm Walsh 2 For the Thiel CS 1.2’s; I’d suggest an amp capable of at least 80 clean Watts into 4 Ohms. | |

| Thiel Owners @sdecker, thanks for the specifics. It's helpful. Checking the c-j website:https://conradjohnson.com/vintage-conrad-johnson-products/It turns out that the output impedances aren't quite as severe as I thought. I might have been confusing the Audib... | |
| Thiel Owners Mod Squad seemed to really start to make their mark with "Tip Toes".Some conrad-johnson pre's can work quite well with some McCormack amps. But due to the high output impedance of some of the c-j pre's coupled with the low input impedance of some... | |

| Thiel Owners @beetlemania, No, I haven’t forgotten your demonstration of subjective opinion. I’ve offered an objective counter point. As has been said; opinion’s are like a part of one’s anatomy, everyone has one . Congratulations, with your closing reply you... |
