| PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo A member of the audiocircle forum Phil A is driving his CS 3.7s with a Modwright KWA 150SE and is very happy with the results.He was using Bryston 14BSST before and found the Modwright much more musical. | |
| PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo emailists i forgot to ask you what preamp are you using with the BHK 300's ?Is it the BHK Signature preamp ? if so how good is it ?Thanks.tomcy6 thanks i did read the Stereophile reviews of the Ypsilon monos and preamp. | |
| Thiel Owners Happy new year to all of you Thiel audiogoners!If you want good bass with the CS 3.7 medium size room with good room treatment and a solid amp is the way to go.I personally wouldn't use them with a sub. | |
| PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo Thanks emailists, yes i found the BHK 300's to be very reasonably priced for such nice hybrid monos.I am also a hybrid believer as i like very much Aesthetix design.I have to see if i can find a dealer to audition the BHK 300's.Anyway happy new ye... | |
| PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo If i was going to go the pure wattage route i would pick the D'agostino classic amp which doubles down all the way to 2 ohms and be done with any load problems.But since this is not my vision of things i prefer to go quality watts and a lot of ref... | |
| Thiel Owners 15x21x10 is just fine for CS 3.7 with good room treatment. | |
| PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo Peter Breuninger has successfuly driven his YG Sonja and MBL 101 MKll with the first version of the Aelius monos.The Aelius work in class A up to 60 watts wich is probably enough to drive the CS 3.7The Aelius ll have had a substential revision wit... | |
| PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo Dan's Momentum S250 stereo is outstanding but here in Europe for $12K less i can purchase the Ypsilon Aelius ll monos.Concerning the Modwright 150 SE i could easily buy 2 of them within my budget. | |
| PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo Yes my Ypsilon distributor is a very cool guys, he's driving down with the gear to make 2 home demos, one for a guy who wants to try out the Aelius on his Magnepan 20.7 and me on my Thiels CS 3.7If at the end i decide to go the Ypsilon route i wil... | |
| PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo Well yes since the Ypsilon Aelius ll is in first position in my short list, the distributor has arranged me a home demo on my system with a Nagra Jazz preamp since he still didn't receive his PST-100 MKll linestage yet.I assume Ypsilon gear being ... | |
| PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo Well i did audition the Gryphon Antileon Evo but at 35K€ for a stereo amp that's very steep!I'd prefer staying within the 25k€ range for monos or 16k€ for stereo amp.I don't want to go the Krell route as i don't find them refined for Thiel speaker... | |
| Thiel Owners 3.7s are starting to be difficult to find on the used market just like the 7.2s.I'm happy to have pulled the trigger just on time 2 years ago. | |
| Thiel Owners Who wants to buy vhiner's beautiful pair of black CS 3.7 ?At that price i wouldn't hesitate if i was you! | |
| PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo The good thing about the D'agostino Classic is that it doubles down all the way to 2 ohms, it's not the case of the other brands. | |
| PS Audio BHK 300 mono VS Modwright KWA 150SE mono VS D'agostino Classic stereo No the 5i's are even more difficult load to drive, i'd prefer the more easier and recent 7.2s.The problem is that 7.2s are extremely difficult to find now days on the used market but this is no hurry for me as my main speaker is the CS 3.7 anyway. |
