| Your opinions on the Polk R700 speakers You probably already know this, but Gary Dayton has taken over at Coherent Source Service and offers parts/repairs for Thiel speakers in Lexington, KY. If you like your 2.4 speakers it could be good option. | |
| Jazz for aficionados I have a copy of Billy Cobham's Glass Menagerie "Observations and Reflections" that I purchased maybe 40 years ago. The first and one of my favorite jazz albums. I take it out and play it every so often and it still sounds great. Unfortunately i... | |
| Qln, Joseph Audio, Audiovector, Marten, or Canton...? OP what did you eventually purchase ? I'm researching Audiovector and found some good info in this thread. | |
| Denon HEOS LINK or Wiim Music Streamers? Thank you soix and mahler123, the Gustard and Cambridge Audio have some nice features indeed. | |
| Denon HEOS LINK or Wiim Music Streamers? Thank you mahler123 and soix. I have the WiiM Ultra setup (easy peasy even for a non-tech person like me). With the Ultra's EQ set to Flat, my initial impressions are the WiiM Ultra and the HEOS LINK are surprisingly similar in sound quality in... | |
| Denon HEOS LINK or Wiim Music Streamers? Thank you blackbag20 and soix, I've been wondering if an external DAC should be purchased soon. I know the DAC is the digital/analog converter but that's where my knowledge ends. | |

| remembering Eva Cassidy, 25 years after her death A gifted artist. My musical tastes have expanded and I enjoy finding new music. But I always come back to Eva. | |
| Thiel Owners @tomthiel, Thank you. I too think the CS2.2 and that tweeter are pretty special and will look forward to hearing more about the enhancements. | |
| Thiel Owners After spending a good part of nine days with the new-to-me CS2.2 speakers, I can say they are a substantial upgrade in every way over my CS1.5 which I still think highly of. Detailed but not harsh, balanced, and good imaging despite still finding ... | |
| Thiel Owners Thank you Tom I appreciate it. I drove to audition the 02's. They sounded good but the cabinets showed more damage to the wood veneer than I was comfortable with so I did not purchase them. So I drove another hour and auditioned a really nice s... | |
| Thiel Owners Hi all, I have an opportunity to purchase a pair of Thiel Model 02's. Do these have foam or rubber surrounds... I've found online info that suggests it could be either ? How do I be sure the drivers are original without removing them from the ca... | |
| Has anyone switched from Class AB/A to Class D? Was it better? Was it worse? OP: I have not really switched... I have A/B amp with tube pre-amp separates in one system and D integrated in another system. To my ears they both sound excellent with the A/B having a bit better control over the bass. |
