At present my living room ( 24X14X8 ) system consists of a Rega Apollo, a Cary SLI-80 and Thiel 2.3 speakers. The speakers are 10 feet apart and the listening position is 10 feet away. I used a Radio Shack digital sound pressure meter and Stereophiles test disk vol I. The 1000 htz warble tone was normalized at 80 db at the listening position
1000 htz +- 0 200 +- 0 160 +- 0 125 + 4 db 100 + 2 db 80 + 5 db 63 - 5 db 50 - 7 db 40 + 2 db 31.5 + 1 db 25 - 12 db
I was surprised on how deep it can go being relatively undepowered by the standards of most Thiel users and using a tubed amp. I must say I really like the sound coming from these speakers.
