Thiel Owners

jonandfamily,

Well, if you are soliciting opinions: I prefer to spend money on something that is actually likely to have an audible impact.  But that kind of opinion tends to fall on deaf ears in the audiophile tweak world, and I ain't gonna tell someone else how to spend their money.

Happy Friday- All.

Happy Friday -All.

Happy Friday jafant!

Hope everyone is enjoying great tunes on sweet sounding Thiels!

I myself am liking these 3.7s so much that I’m getting ready to list my lovely 3.5s :) only one set of Thiels at a time for me in my NYC apartment!

Also, came to the realization that my old reliable Sherwood’s weren’t quite up to the task of powering the 3.7s. I’m currently running them with a loaner Rogue Audio Medusa hybrid tube/class-D amp that feeds them about 350w into 4 ohms. Incredibly wide soundstage, spacious detailed top-end and slamming precise bass. Missing perhaps a little of the luscious mids that tubes do so nicely. I do really like how well the Rogue “sound” complements the Thiels. Might try something like their Stereo-100 sometime down the line.

Any suggestions/opinions on Rogue with Thiels?..

I once had the Rogue Cronus Magnum Integrated a while back and I dug it like a shovel. I believe I had it going with a pair of Totem Rainmakers and a small REL sub. 
I very well might have sold that off when I got my 3.5’s and figgered mo’ juice was better. 

Totem makes some impressive stuff. I’ve had their Hawks as well - two pairs at different times. Stupid, yes - then again I’ve had 3, count em, three pairs of 3.5’s in the last few years. 
Totem was fine, but I found the Hawks bass somewhat artificial sounding, but comparing to Thiel isn’t really fair!
