Thiel Powerplane and Powerpoint Speakers

Hi unsound. Appreciate your comments. Unfortunately in this kind of screwy setup optimal sound isn't going to be acheived. I have so much working against me. First the wife factor for a bedroom system is overpowering. If anything can be seen at all unless used it is out. I have had to put everything in a corner cabinet with ok but limited space, which is why I went from separates to the integrated Rotel piece. I generally don't like these things, but actually this is a pretty cool unit and fun to work with. I have read a lot stuff saying that with offset units such as this the center channel is helpful set above the monitor. My experience is in agreement. Remember this is for occasional music, lots of tv, and some dvds. When watching video sources centering the center has a weird effect. I actually tried to get my wife let hang the monitor on the ceiling with a tilt down device, no go.

I am interested in why you don't like the Rotel Thiel match. I haven't heard these speakers very much, but the big boys are clear fast speakers with great sound. It may be these two units don't equal much warmth. I would love follow up from you and others who have experienced these speakers. Any other suggestions are welcome.

Thanks to all. Unsound I really understand where your going on the thiel rotel match as others have pointed out lean amps with thiels are not a good match. I personally would match CJ amps with Thiels if that were a logical choice. I have a CJ amp that I have matched with Revel M20s with very warm results. My concern here was the thiel match. The Rotel amp is a nice bang for the buck but somewhat lean.
