Thiel Owners

Thanks for your feedback. I agree that I could have experimented more with positioning when I had the 3.7s for audition but was somewhat limited by time. I hope the issue is not a speaker-electronics mismatch because I don't have any plans to give up my Naim stuff. The match has been excellent with my 3.6s and - based on the specs - the 3.7s would seem to be a slightly easier load. While my Naim amp is not high-powered by Thiel standards, it is capable of driving low loads and providing high current so should be a good match with the 3.7s.
...so the journey continues...

Interesting -- I had never even heard of  Aries Cerat Concero 65 monoblocs prior to reading your post. I checked out the website and their products do indeed look very interesting - but way beyond what I'd be willing to spend -- and I remain committed to my Naim electronics based on long experience with the brand.
I've been "out-of-the-market" for many years so this renewed bout of audiophialic disease is both exciting and frustrating!

my pleasure and there are few Thiel owners out there that enjoy Naim electronics to match. Careful cables/cords selection and you are all set.

Happy Listening!

Hi Thielliste, 
I'm impressed by your wife's taste and listening perspective (Based on previous discussion ).  Which does she prefer between the CH Precision and Aries Cerat? Reading your comments I get the impression that the Aries Cerat draws a stronger emotional response listening to music.

Good to see you again. There is an incredible amount of excellent gear coming out of the EU.  Happy Listening!
