| Thiel Owners I owned 2.3s in the past and help deliver a bunch of 2.4s (and 2.3s) when a friend worked at a local audio store many moons ago. Vocals on the 2.4s are a bit more relaxed and open. The 2.4s also felt to me a bit more dynamic in the bass region. | |
| What Class D amps will drive a 2 ohm load The only caveat I'd have about the Purify 1ET400A as a separate power amp in the gain spec of 12.8dB. I'm sure that doesn't hurt the distortion specs but may not be good for many people depending on their associated equipment. | |

| Thiel Owners The 3.7s for sure were not as bad a load as the 7.2s. I owned 2.3s before the 7.2s and now have 3.7s. I also have SCS2s (using them for side and rear surround but had them as mains in the bedroom system of my old house). When my friend worked a... | |
| Is OPPO worth the inflated price? I have a bunch of Oppo players. Two 103Ds, one in the bedroom and one in the main system. The main system is just used for video (it's an integrated AV system but I probably watch 10 movies/year and it has a projector and probably stuff like the... | |
| Thiel Owners Great news to hear! | |
