| Thiel Owners @duramax747 , A pair of CS 3.7 are on my list to purchase. They have to be in very good condition and within a reasonable driving distance for me to purchase as shipping is not an option with the high risk of damage. With that said, as upgrades... | |
| Thiel Owners So, how do I get this new technology into my 3.7s? | |
| Thiel Owners fluid dynamic wavelaunch technologies from Douglas Pauley Tom, what is this? | |
| Thiel Owners Yes. This is fabulous news from @tomthiel re further developments! | |
| Thiel Owners I replaced the old coaxes in my 3.7s with the new black ones two years ago. Have to agree, the sound is fantastic. Plus they look outasight. | |
| Thiel Owners Tom, Yes, cable is self-terminated with no additional hardware. Nude is what Morrow calls them! But re the banana plugs -- I could do that. Do you have recommendations regarding brands and/or materials? | |
| Thiel Owners ...sound is... | |
| Thiel Owners Tom, I use the nude termination on my Morrow SP7 cables into the 3.7s. Also the same contact grease (on your recommendation). Since the cable could slip out easily, I had to "secure" them in place with a wrapping of electrical tape. Still not op... | |
| Thiel Owners My 3.7s definitely sound better with the grills off. In fact, I'm unable to distinguish the occasional sounds from the environment from that which comes from the speakers. It's that good. | |
| Thiel Owners Also, @ improvedsound, Very, very nice! I’m hoping to do XO upgrades with my 3.7s. This can serve as a model. | |
| Thiel Owners Tom, Yes, your experience with the Benchmark cables mirrors mine. I have Aurender N10 > DAC3B > LA4 > AHB2 x2 > 3.7. I've posted several times here about how glorious this sounds. I tried some upper-end Morrow speaker cables a while ... | |
| Thiel Owners I recognize that these claims run counter to everything we know about amp behavior. Ha! Exactly. What are we going to believe --spec abstractions or our lying ears? | |
| Thiel Owners @unsound I have no problem with massive orchestral works -- Bruckner, Mahler, Stravinsky, Carter et alia playing at concert level through my 3.7s in my 21x20x8' listening room. My two AHB-2 amps don't even blink. | |
| Thiel Owners Gotta second Tom's Benchmark rec. That's all you need and the end of the story. I run all Benchmark with my 3.7s. It has completely reoriented my ideas about endlessly looking for the right tweak/cable, amp and etc. Of course, I used to do that. ... | |
| Thiel Owners But cutting output cables to half length gets that back. Tom, what do you mean by this? I can't exactly cut my speaker cables in half for my Benchmark stack. |
