Thiel Owners

@tomthiel, though I'm typically firmly ensconced in the solid state camp, the Sonic Frontier's Line 3 tube line stage impressed the heck out of me. With its true balanced, DC coupled, low output impedance; makes an unusually good match with ss amps too.

unsound - the Sonic Frontier (model unknown) preamp driving the Krell FPB 600 is what I heard when auditioning the final prototype of the 2.7 compared with the reference 3.7 in Thiel's listening room on my 2012 visit to Lexington. I have personally never heard better, although I must admit I've never heard any ultra high priced offerings. 

Jim required amplification that he liked and that tested impeccably well. Those were his choices.

All - I have family and friends in Lexington who report no damage there. Also, Rob's farm where he retreats to hunt and fish are farther east, away from the tornadoes. So we can assume he didn't get hit. However, I've still not heard from him in a long time.
