Thiel Owners

Tom I wonder what they would  sound like incorporating your ideas of up shimming  the woofers bi amping and incorporating the new wavy drivers from the 3.7s!! Add some cabinet and grill  tweaks your learning  from the hot rod garage and upgrade the remaining  caps!!! Wow could you imagine???

Well, I bought a pair of ViewPoints off ebay for $450.  I don't have a real specific use in mind yet.  They might be surrounds, might end up used as computer speakers.  Maybe I'll take them to work and use them to listen to music at work.  I'm frequently the first one in the office and I have an hour or so before anyone else gets in.  I'm guessing these are probably as good as the PowerPoints and an off the chart bargain at the price. 

@arvincastro regarding Class D amps - I have a pair of the Bel Canto REF600M monos.  My initial impression driving either 2.7's or 3.6's wasn't favorable and I believe this was due to a poor match with other associated components.  At the time everything that I had was going towards the accurate side of the spectrum and this may have not been a good recipe to insert the Bel Cantos into.

I need to try them again with the Thiels using my newest preamp - a Levinson 326s.

As a point of partial reference I'm running the 2.7's with Bryston 7BST monos and the 3.6's with a Krell TAS in stereo mode.

The Bel Canto amps are currently running B&W CDM1SE's in an office system with excellent results.

Also thanks to everyone who is involved in keeping Thiel alive on this forum and elsewhere!

Hello!

Thanks for sharing your experience...especially considering Bel Canto’s amps are definitely on my short list of auditioning. 
I may have to adjust my thinking as I am primarily looking at D-amplification from an efficiency standpoint but haven’t researched too deeply in how well it would match with the rest of my tube-based gear...especially considering I went with tube line stage & phono preamp to add some “lushness” to the revealing nature of my CS3.5’s. 
Thanks again & please let me know how those 600M’s go along with your Levinson.
