| Thiel Owners I have a set of 2.7's and reading your thread, made me want to experiment with tubes. I have only tried ss amplification.I too, have a less than ideal room size and have stayed with Thiel's 2 series instead of 3 series because of this. | |
| Thiel Owners prof,Will you still be using your cj premier amps? | |
| Thiel Owners oblgnyAre you sure you want to sell that quickly? Have you listened extensively to the 3.6?It's just that some like the 3.5 over the 3.6...Wow - lot of changes this year in your system. Kudos to you for being so decisive! | |
| Thiel Owners jafant,They are selling your amp on ebay! : )This is one for the archives...I remember reading about someone that sent one of these to cj for update to modern caps they use today.This is a very rare bird indeed.http://www.ebay.com/itm/152478204813... | |
| Thiel Owners michaeljbrown,Have you thought about the Thiel PCS? Identical drivers as used in the MCS and less obtrusive. I used four along with MCS and Smartsub prior to my current system and sounded great.I never really liked the in wall premise for surround... | |
| Thiel Owners saffronJust gorgeous! Need a roommate? | |
| Thiel Owners Doing house work today - started off with Coldplay in background and wanted to hear some horns so switched over to Chicago. Now I stopped house work!Wondering what you guys listen to? I am a big Dave Matthews fan myself although I have been listen... | |
| Thiel Owners First heard Thiel in the very early 90's. Maybe 1992 or even 91. I didn't purchase my used CS2 2 until 10 years later. (Going through a divorce and raising two children does funny things to you wallet.)Never forgot them though, so when opportunity... | |
| Thiel Owners In 1986 I'm afraid I could only afford a receiver and no separates. I do remember at that time I had a set of Phase Research speakers (Phil Clements) that I was smitten with....I had not heard Thiel yet since no dealers nearby. There were Audio St... | |
| Thiel Owners : )Having a "good ear day",Dave Matthews...Wow, so damn good!Why is it some days everything sounds so sweet and detailed? | |
| Thiel Owners Tough to tell from those photos, but seem good condition and price. I could really use another MCS1, but do not purchase from Craigslist. If you are thinking of purchasing the package, i would be interested in the MCS1 after checking photos... :) | |
| Thiel Owners Hi, guys - just wanted to note that differences in closed box, ported and passive radiator design are mostly back pressure on the woofer and compliance of the air inside the box. As the woofer vibrates to create sound from electrical charge of voi... | |
| Thiel Owners thieliste - I drove about six hours each way when I picked up my 2.7's. Well worth it in my view, but everyone thought I was crazy.Anyone have tales to tell on lengths they were willing to go to get theirs?I think someone mentioned a shipping nigh... | |
| Thiel Owners popsIs sounds as though you still have the 3.6 even after you purchased your 6. I myself, have been unable to let go of my former Thiel products even after upgrading. (After all, there aren't going to be any more!) I wonder how many others can't l... | |
| Thiel Owners The 3.7 does not lack bass. It is very difficult to achieve the bottom octave with medium sized cabinet designs, especially when using 1st order crossover networks. (Woofer must be expected to perform equally well several octaves above the crossov... |
