Thiel Owners

Hi Thiel mates
I was wondering if beetlemania or any others could tell me which xo boards I have and what would be the best to updated on them. They are green circuit boards. They have black MPT capacitors, white ceramic about 3" long, I guess resistors, and bare white plastic wire tied coils. On the board on the floor in addition to the black caps and ceramic things and coils there are 2 green caps in parallel with 100mfd 100v + - 5% on them. I will try to get it on my system page. Might take me a day to do that. Thanks for any help.

@thoft, O.K., an older DR 25 with an updated newer faceplate. I thought you bought 2 and were running them as monos. With the 3.6’s 2.3 Ohm minimum impedance you’re better off with one stereo amp that is not bridged. You should have plenty of available power with one stereo unit, especially in a smaller room. Classe’ is a nice match for Thiel’s. Congratulations, enjoy.

Thank you for the update. I did not know if Bill provided a turn-around timeline for the SCD-1.

Happy Listening!

JA - it seems that the SCD-1 is old business and I allowed him to back-burner it since I'm not in urgent need. He is also going to look at possible upgrades for my classic Classé DR6 and DR9s. I hope to pick up the Sony later this summer, if he can fix it.

markmike - please post the pix and state your model and serial numbers. I might provide some clues.
