Thiel Owners

Hi guys, happy new year to all Thiel lovers.

Today the Audionet dealer is coming to my place to demo the Audionet Max monoblocks and preamp in my system.

This is going to be interesting to hear how my Diablo 300 compares to the Audionet separates.

Pretty soon i will also have the Cardas distributor come to my place to try Cardas Clear Reflection IC and SC and who knows perhaps Clear Beyond.

Happy new year to fellow Thiel lovers and fans.

To kick off 2022, I placed an order with Rob for a pair of 2.7 coaxial drivers. Now, I can't wait for it to arrive!

@thieliste oh boy, that sounds like a fun shootout that I would like to experience and be part of. I do think (maybe a little bias) that the Audionet will be a good match with Thiels.

Please share your impressions with us!

I use a passive pre-amp ( attenuator and input selector )  with an all tube phone preamp and CD player powered by a McCormack DNA-250 without the need for more gain from a powered preamp .

Your Mark Levinson amp has more than enough power to forgo a powered preamp , if you go back at least 40 pages back you'll read about another Thiel / Spectal digital only owner asking the same question . 

The question is do you want any other features that preamps offer ?

Robert - a primary consideration is the length of your interconnects. Long interconnects place the burden of driving them onto your source components.

Good to see you here this New Year.  This will be your year to launch Thiel
