PASS Labs Power
Always heard great things about them. Never listened as nobody around here does a demo using PASS LABS, I got this on a blind buy from and it has really beat my expectations. Meaty and Detailed lol   I especially like the binding post for the sp...

Great system and taste in bands. Enjoy the music!  
Young audiophile metal head looking to level up speaker choice
I think that a floor standing full range speaker will be better with 7in woofer at least for good bass. Maybe take the rogue to a good dealer with a proper listening room and see a few options. You will most likely hear a speaker that really sings... 
Preamp headphone amplifier
Congrats! those are probably going to sound pretty sweet. Sennheiser makes great headphones and those are rated at 103dB sensitivity.  Looks like the No.526 has a low / high setting for the headphone amp output so may see how that sounds to your ...

For Chet Baker Fans (and all fans of great music)

TY for the suggestions DILL, The distance is 10ft ear-tweeter distance. Funnily enough I have moved the couch back another 2 feet and bass is sounding much more full. Polarity is all good😎

Good seeing all the tweek talk amongst many Thiel speaker design enthusiast. I happen to be also since purchasing a pair of CS2.4 in walnut finish close to 20 years ago now. They are still living up to the task of proving a very great listening. T...

mlsstl , I really appreciate the valuable information. As with everyone else's shared experience and advice. I've not moved the cabinets closer to the walls yet. I'll try this out!  As far as placement. The speakers are 30 in. from both the rear ...
