Thiel Owners

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!

Warren,
your one of the lucky few that own a 2.4SE model  and it sounds like judging from your measurements you must have a large room.
Have you tried moving them out a little further apart ?
Only the Indigo Girls song is familiar to me , buy coincidence 
I listened to thier second album earlier , it's Friday Folk for me.
I don't have any of the albums by other artist you mentioned.

I thought that the 3.7s came with outriggers as standard equipment,
like the 2.4SEs . Maybe other 3.7 owners can answer that one.
They are something that I would like to have for my 2.7s
but not at the $500 price tag that Thiel is asking.

Happy Friday All and to All Goodnight
Rob

Yes, the Cronus Magnum was a great little integrated. With its beefy transformers and power supply it could definitely drive some pretty demanding speakers. The Stereo-100 has an even more massive power supply and with its cuad of kt120s, might be a nice match with the 3.7s. 

What’s funny is that the 3.5s sounded great with my Sherwood’s at 80wpc. I did keep the EQ in the 40hz-20khz setting to tame the low basss..
