Thiel Owners

As above, the Classics ( vintage) never go out of style.

Happy Listening!

Thank you for your experience and wisdom here. Good to read that Jim and Nelson traveled the same circle. Nelson’s gear is a Sonic match for our beloved loudspeakers.  Adcom, First Watt and Pass Labs offer goodness from yesterday and today.  I will keep a watch for an original Adcom

GFA 555 amp. I see one quite often around the net.

Happy Listening!

In your estimation, what years in production for the GFA 555 power amp ?

Did Jim have this model in his lab ?

Happy Listening!

Coda amps are also a good sonic match for Thiels. And I’m sure it’s no coincidence that this may have something to do with the fact that the folks behind Coda Technologies, Doug Dale and Eric Lauchi, worked with Nelson Pass when all three were together at Threshold. And very much like Pass designed amps, Coda amps do much of their heavy lifting in Class A along with the type of high current that make Thiel speakers sing.

Yes! CODA and Threshold are Sonic matches for Thiel Audio.

Happy Listening!
