| Thiel Owners Duramax, Well if i had the dollars and even more, the space for it, i would get a 500 now and then go mono in about a year as i think it is pretty easy to convert them (not sure if it can be done at home or sent back to the factory). guessing ... | |
| Thiel Owners @duramax747 I too am thinking about the BAT amps you mentioned. I would prefer the 300 in mono as they are less expensive for sure and also much lighter in weight versus the 500. However at this point, i do not think the 300's are available. ... | |
| Thiel Owners Hi All, by any chance is anyone reading this today going to the Live Audio Advice show in Raleigh? | |
| Thiel Owners hi Tom, i meant the audio show was noisy, especially the AV rooms. no problem with my wonderful 3.7's. Thanks. Hi Duramax, i think as long as the amp is capable of a lot of current, any good high powered SS amp will work. The Coda is r... | |
| Thiel Owners it is fun but very noisy. i am going to listen to the Perlisten brand of speakers. it has been very challenging to find a speaker that would entice me enough to sell my 3.7's i drive them with a Coda 16 amp and a BAT VK 80 preamp. | |
| Thiel Owners are you by chance going to the Audio Advice show in Raleigh this Friday? | |

| Thiel Owners hi Gentlemen, Thank you for the input and comments. A special shout out to Jafant for maintaining this thread, and to Tom Thiel for all his wonderful advice and input. | |
| Thiel Owners Thanks Tom. Rob was a great guy and i enjoyed working with him. my 3.7's came from his inventory back in 2018. I met Gary about 2010 (or thereabouts) when he was visiting the local Thiel dealer here in Greensboro. Also a terrific guy and it ... | |
| Thiel Owners There is a pair of 3.7's just listed on AUM as of today and are located in MA. | |
| Thiel Owners I have not been keeping up with this thread but noticed that Gary Dayton's name was mentioned a few times in relation to CSS. Is Rob still there or has he gone on to another career? | |
| Thiel Owners Greetings Thiel fans, I wanted to share that 2025 marks my 40 year anniversary of owning Thiel speakers. Cannot believe it. 1985 cs 2.0 1989 cs 2.2 2007 cs 2.4 2015 cs 2.7 2018 cs 3.7 I am very interested to hear from anyone that owned 3.... | |
| Favorite Newly Discovered Female Vocalist @larsman thanks. I have to say The Dreaming is a very close second and in many ways is a more interesting album. Have been a fan since about 1985 so she is not a "new discovery". but i could not leave her out of this discussion. It is amazing... | |
| Favorite Newly Discovered Female Vocalist Also check out Jo Harrop and her album Path of a Tear. | |
| Favorite Newly Discovered Female Vocalist Great thread. I may have missed her name but possibly the most creative and innovative female singer/songwriter of the past fifty years is not on this list. She is a truly acquired taste but well worth the listen: Kate Bush is her name and most... |
