Thiel Owners

I am patient as well. I had planned a Bryston audition during the holiday stretch, but the dealer/retailer (Engulf Audio) did not show? Onward and upward. Stay safe and warm.

Happy Listening!

@jafant I have the stock resistors. I suspect the 6 dB gain version is for people with low gain phono setups. I have a TT but my cartridge and phono stage work well with my amp albeit the gain is plainly down compared to my DAC (and with hirez I rarely listen to vinyl anymore). Regardless, the stock version works well with my 2.4s.

@tomthiel That is very interesting and I look forward to reading your report. Do you imagine the technology will eventually extend to the other Thiel models or just those few with a slot port?

I see. I will combine a CD/SACD player which ever way I go.
I do not own any Vinyl. I wonder where the clipping point lies with Ayre separates? I will consider shooting out both integrated and separates on the next demo.  Keep up the excellent XO work!

Happy Listening!

Happy Friday! All.
