This thread reminds me of talking about your kids to your spouse.
You can’t really go on about how wonderful your kids are to anyone else. It would make them puke. But your spouse is someone who shares your feelings for your kids, so you can tell them every wonderful thing your kid did today.
And on that note, I can blab to my fellow Thiel owners: Spinning the Saturday Night Fever LP on the 2.7s now. Absolute heaven. Quick, tight, impactful kick drum, present dense snare drums, voices natural, every element delineated yet richly so, not at all clinical (as I’ve recently heard from some other speakers). I’m not just getting audiophile goodies; I’m getting the fun and verve of spinning records when I was young.
Played a new copy of John Coltrane’s Blue Train. Unbelievable. Sax, trumpet, so clear and present with their differing tonality - organic, not electronic and silvery. Drums with clarity and snap "right there" in the room. The stand up bass maintained tautness even from well outside my listening room down the hall.
Yeah, I can let go of the 3.7s without much regret.
