| Thiel Owners prof — jafanti tried to contact jserio (selling the black 3.7s) through US AudioMart to ask some questions but he didn’t reply. I question whether the speakers are still for sale. One concern I have with the 3.7s (and also 2.7s) is that when I l... | |
| PMC Speakers ...so I guess there’s no substitute for listening to as many speakers as possible - yet we still make the “wrong” decisions too often. It’s pretty much a no-win game - listening to different speakers driven by an almost infinite number of componen... | |
| PMC Speakers TwoleftearsI’m driving my Thiel CS3.6s with a Naim NAP300 amp - it drives the difficult load of the Thiels very well. I believe the Thiels are the only Speakers on your list that have first order crossovers. Do the B&Ws, ProAcs, or PMCs do as ... | |
| PMC Speakers TwoleftearsI’m driving my Thiel CS3.6s with a Naim NAP300. This amp drives the Thiels very well. It’s interesting that you switched from Thiels to several other brands - none of which has a first-order crossover.I like speakers that can accurately... | |
| PMC Speakers MilpaiI completely agree that listening to any speaker is a must. I’ve read many opinions in these forums on various speakers and disagree with some and agree with others. There’s no substitute for listening to any speakers of interest. The proble... | |
| Green Mountain Audio's Calypso HD Speakers? abbeydogThanks for the feedback on GMA speakers and your Calypso’s. I didn’t realize this model was around for ten years. GMA seems to have discontinued many of its speaker models — the Calypos seem to be their main speaker. I was intrigued by th... | |
| PMC Speakers There’s also the possibility I’ll just keep my Thiel 3.6s since I have to get the tweeters rebuilt. Decisions! | |
| PMC Speakers I also heard and really like the Vandersteen Treos but I’m not sure they’ll have sufficient bass for my room (medium size 14.25x17.5 w/cathedral ceiling. | |
| PMC Speakers I listened to the passive ATC SCM19s and really liked them but want to hear the passive SCM40s but no area dealers stock them. ATC and PCM brands have really limited availability and that may bd a concern. Geek101. Did you hear both? Why do you sa... | |
| PMC Speakers Hi Folks — thanks for the feedback so far. Milpai’s comment about my not providing enough info regarding what Im looking for Is well taken. I’m looking for a speaker that is able to image well, has pinpoint focus, tight, clean, no bass overhang, f... | |
| Thiel Owners jonandfamilyThanks for the kind words about my system in virtual systems!My serial numbers are 5457/58 - Amberwood - still look immaculate but need some TLC (tweeters and maybe mids need rebuild). Next step is with CSS. | |
| Thiel Owners tomthielDo you really want to hear the crap from these dealers? It'll be painful listing their comments, but I'll try to be accurate. Dealer 1) Imaging and focus are not real, but created. Thiel speakers basically do sound effects and sound big an... | |
| Thiel Owners I've been listening to speakers recently to compare to my 21 year old CS3.6s -- it's a journey that I'll continue for awhile. Visiting a number of dealers, I've been amazed at all the Thiel bashing by some of these dealers - crazy claims - outrigh... | |
| What’s a 10k to 15k speaker from smaller company that performs well? I recently listened to the Legacy Signature SE and really wasn't impressed with them. They did all the audiophile stuff - sparkly highs, OK mids and lots of bass- but I thought they were unrefined and coarse -- just my opinion. | |
| ATC SCM20, Wow what sound.. The SCM40s are floor standing and about $7K new, and are a more efficient than the SCM20s. |
