Thiel Owners

Some Bryston’s are compatible with some Thiel’s.

hi Bighempin,   it was great seeing you and i am so glad you enjoyed your visit.   I am honored and pleased that my system sounded so good to you.   I  am such a huge fan of the PS gear and think the BHK amps are fantastic with Thiel speakers (at least with the 2.7and 3.7 as i have not tried others with the PS amp).  However i think that most people who have not experienced what one of the PS power plants can do are missing out on getting the best from their systems.   I have owned numerous iterations of them and the P15 and P20 will transform your system for sure.  Even the older and smaller models are great and are critical for a system to perform at its best.  I sure hope you can get the speakers you want especially the 3.7's as they are like mini IRS speakers.

Great to see you in this New Year. I have missed your comments and contributions. Good to read that you are still enjoying the PS Audio/Thiel Audio combination. Those BHK amps are really catching on to Audiophiles across various forums. Agreed, PS Audio Power Plants are highly regarded in the 2-channel and home theater arenas.
As your schedule allows, post some of your fave albums or musical passages/selections, that demonstrate your system's sonic capabilities.


Happy Listening!

ronkent - welcome back!  Very curious about what you will do when Paul releases his speakers.  If you move on, can you put me on your short list for the 3.7s?  How does one obtain a pair of these anyway, outside of watching all the normal sites?  Not in the market now, but someday....

jacksky and bighempin2 - welcome, you probably know this, but you have found a gem of a thread.  bighempin2 I am impressed you are jumping in with both feet!

All - I rarely see MCS1s for sale, and came across one at Audio Solutions in Indy, for $700, catch is both woofers don't work, nor does the midrange, and they are unsure (!?!) about the tweeter, so lots more $$$ to rebuild this thing.  Question is, are these so rare that it could be worth it for the person determined to put together a five channel Thiel system?

bighempin2 - forgot to ask, did PS Audio have their speaker prototypes in the listening room when you were there, as Paul mentioned in one of his videos?  I was out there in October and no such luck but they had just moved.
