I do agree all the above comments on the Thiel speakers. If you are looking for lush or warmer speakers, then please check with something else. Speakers sould be the center of your systems, but maybe tube pre and power amps could do the job too. Tim
Thiel 2.3--bright or harsh ?
I have a pair of Thiel 2.3's running with a Krell integrated-KAV300i and a Rega Planet CD player. With a great CD the sound is wonderful----but put on a "questionable" recording and they sure sound bright or harsh. I heard about an upgraded driver for the 2.3's but did not arrive yet. Anyone have any experience with this.. Will the new drivers do the trick---and/or is there anything else I can do get rid of some of the brightness.
