Thiel Owners

@jazzman7, these just showed up in the last day or two.  These same goofballs are offering a pair of Vienna Acoustics Mozarts for 4498.  I bought a pair of Mozart grands for <500 when Best Buy dropped the line a while back.  I realized how ridiculous the VA's were when I bought some Thiel 2 2s.  They're very mediocre.

Thank You for the update.  Good to see you here.

Happy Listening!

Andy2, glad to see that more people are getting familiar with options to have linear phase. The steepness of the slope had an impact on the pre ringing, as has the frequency of the filter. As the goal is to keep the pre ringing inaudible, lower order XO are better, especially for the bass to mid XO. For the mid to tweet xo, the frequency range of the drivers and distortion may determine the preference for the XO order. As the timing can be measured and adjusted for each driver separately, the time coherence can be obtained at the listeners position easily. 

Ok I tested polarity and everything is ok. 
Is it normal, even at say high 80’s dbs for the woofer to be barely moving?

Put your preamp in mono if you can.  Even if you can't, both woofers should be moving about the same amount.
