Thiel Owners

Sonic Frontiers,  is still highly regarded in our hobby. The brand has a strong fan-base. The Classics, never go out of vogue.

Happy Listening!

@ronkent  Can you please let us know if you had the right threading included in your Gaia kit for the 3.7 outriggers.

I would also like to try the Gaia ll footers eventually.

hi  @thieliste  and  @dr3,   it has been a few years but i think i had to order some additional screws  to attach the GAIA to the outriggers.   i would certainly want a 30 day return on them as my friend Bob (who has 3.7's) did not like them.,  mine go onto bare floor as i cut the carpet away for them (his wife would not allow him to do so :).  I really like the PS amps  but i would guess that the Brystons would be great as well.   I do want to try an integrated,  the Gryphon Diablo,  as it worked so well with the Wilson speakers,  and it is something i can borrow for a few days.  the Wilson dealer will not bring the Sasha's to my home and i totally understand why.,   so next year,  if all goes well and just for fun,  i am going to take my 3.7's over there and run them against the Wilsons.  

hi @sdl4,  i would strongly encourage you to get a 30 day audition of the new PS DAC when it is available. as i told a good friend,  it was like getting a new pair of speakers, or in Thiel world, going from say 2.2's, to 2.4's.  my history with Thiel goes back to 1985 and here is the history:

1985 2.0

1992 2.2 (my longest running Thiel)

2007 2.4 

2013 2.7

2018 3.7

@ronkent I've owned the Diablo 300 during a year with my 3.7s and didn't like the presentation at all.

Its was pretty harsh sounding and the bass was lean.

I now use a Vitus SIA-025 Mk2 which is class A, this integrated is in a different league and drives my 3.7s much better with finesse and i do have a deeper bass now and it is full body.
