Thiel 3.6 to Eggleston Andras II


Has anyone actually made this move? I have owned the Thiels for over 10 years and love the transparency, dynamics, and truth in timbre. Looking for more dynamics with Rock and classic rock...am I on the right path? Thanks for any insight!

I think the key to understanding how important time and phase coherence is that, once you have experienced it and "learned" the cue to listen for in playback, it becomes apparent when it is taken away and the brain expects these timing cues to be intact. Instead one is sensitized and hears things that are out of time with regard to timbre and attack microdynamics across the frequency range. These most subtle cues add up. I think this is the reason why when I left Thiel for Dynaudio many years ago, a year later I just had to return to Thiels (or Vandersteen).
Reviving an older thread here;
anyone ever audition the Eggleston WEGG3 loudspeaker? While not quite a time and phase coherent design, it is not far removed from this traditional design its Tweeter array.  Very cool speaker, 6ft tall, weighs over 100 lbs.
Double 10" woofers per speaker.  I would love to know its current capacity (like a Thiel loudspeaker)?  Very limited production due to the $25K price tag
circa early 2000's.


Lookin' to cheat on your sweetheart without even giving her a toss, jafant?

Never! Dave-

you might say that this was my 1st taste of truly higher end speakers in a CJ/Sim Audio/Audience system.  My room would not do this speaker proper justice.  This was a niche' product from Eggleston. Still, my original query exists- how much current does that speaker require to drive the tweeter array and dual 10" woofers per side?  Google for pics of this incredible loudspeaker.
