Thiel Owners

@jafant I've found that an old pair of simple AudioQuest (I think 4) cables sound the best on the 2.7 and DHLabs Q-10 sounds best on the 3.6.  The rooms are also quite different.  The 2.7 better damped and the 3.6 a little bit more live due to hard surfaces.

Another note on the ARC CD6 test.  I didn't mess with speaker cables at all during that test - only interconnects.  Thiel/Krell has never been known for soft/weak/wooly/uncontrolled bass so I didn't think to mess with the speaker cables.  If I get the chance to test another ARC spinner I'll mess with speaker cables as well.

@tomthiel I've been looking for a pair of the Goertz cables to try however none have popped up locally.

@tomthiel I have a pair of the Straightwire Maestro speaker cables.  Haven't had them in the system in a while and will give them a spin this weekend.

solobone - I'm interested in your comparative evaluation against whatever else you use, as well as the Maestro rank in SW's line-up.

@jafant i Actually have Ted of synergistic audio on my friends list. Love his posts on his car hobby and the videos he posts of the production facility. Unfortunately you don’t get a discount for being his friend. LOL

jafant,

Please continue to keep us up-to-date on your cable search. I have to admit that I have not had much luck with Synergistic Research for interconnects or USB cables in comparative demos I've done in my system. However, I know others who love SR wire in their systems, especially when using the more expensive SR offerings.
