| Thiel Owners Good info thanks! | |
| Thiel Owners Oh and not that I am keeping score, esp bc quality is more important than quantity with these threads, but I take some pride in knowing this thread now has more high quality posts than the Tekton Double Impact thread - nice! And it was nice to se... | |
| Thiel Owners Hey guys - just have to say +1 on adding a sub. I have 2.3s and don't consider myself predisposed to requiring good bass - it's never been a high priority characteristic I listen for when auditioning equipment - but based on these discussions an... | |
| Thiel Owners bighempin2 - forgot to ask, did PS Audio have their speaker prototypes in the listening room when you were there, as Paul mentioned in one of his videos? I was out there in October and no such luck but they had just moved. | |
| Thiel Owners ronkent - welcome back! Very curious about what you will do when Paul releases his speakers. If you move on, can you put me on your short list for the 3.7s? How does one obtain a pair of these anyway, outside of watching all the normal sites? ... | |
| Thiel Owners So, my advice to you, pwhinson, is to pursue room treatments. I think you could improve by optimizing listening positions (speaker placement relative to sitting position), two channel taking priority over ht. Possible room treatments include fal... | |
| Thiel Owners Pwhinson -I have a 21 x 11 tunnel of a room with a large window on the front wall. I have spent the last six months convincing myself the next most cost effective upgrade is room treatments. I have researched room treatments and have figured tha... | |
| New Member And few questions on First Tube Amp. I bought my first tube amp about six months ago, demoed B.A.T., Rogue, and PrimaLuna, bc that's what my local dealers had in my price range, and would have been happy with any of these, however, found a good deal on a used B.A.T. VK-55 which I am ... | |
| Best song for immediate impact when presenting or testing? Great thread, OP, got me listening to some old stone-cold classics and adding many new ones to my "must listen to" list. Here's a couple more - Billy Cobham - "Searching for the Right Door/Spectrum" from Spectrum. Great drums on intro and throug... | |
| What will a preamp do for me? Thanks George! So far my conclusion re preamps is they can shape the sound (along with source and volume control), sometimes to great affect, but no guarantees that one will provide the specific improvements I am looking for. I was pretty sure i... | |
| What will a preamp do for me? I would promise it a good power cord to keep it well fed, a variety of aftermarket tubes to keep it interested, isolation to keep it comfy, and oodles of fiddles and ABC to keep it dancing. | |
| BAT amp users - any fuse recommendations? batman1971 - I bought my VK-55 used, it's my first tube amp, and it came with the standard output tubes, Russian 6C33C-Bs. The driver tubes were Sylvania Chrome Domes, now I am trying Upscale Audio's "Early Russian" 6H8C/6SN7s. Initially these d... | |
| Thiel Owners jafant - nice review and hope to read several more from you! | |
| Thiel Owners thanks stevecham, you're making me a believer! | |
| Thiel Owners stevecham - can you please elaborate on your choice of amps? I am interested in the Stellar M700s and wondering how they sound compared to other amps you have used with the Thiels? Thanks ahead of time! |
