Outstanding set-up! I have Thiel CS6's and an Esoteric DV-50 and love them. I would love to hear your system, I'll bet it is something special. I agree about the copper wires. Pops is right, properly feeding Thiels it the trick.

Nice system! I have never heard the 6's or the 7.2's but have owned the 3.6's for several years and love them. I have a huge room and thinking about moving up to one of those models. Your right....feed the thiels properly and they are incomparable!

Thanks for the response Mike. I just saw you are using XLO Reference series cables as above on your impressive setup and thought to myself I may have overspent on cables(since my system costs considerably less than yours). I have just recently got a pair of XLO Signature 2 2.2 balanced interconnects as well and was utterly stunned on the sonic improvements they brought to my system. Very dynamic and revealing with incredible bass slam. This is one great cable.

XLO Sign. S-2 2.2 Balanced Copper

XLO Sign. S-2 5.2 Copper

Both Copper Cables. I feel with Thiels speakers (CS-6) copper sounds better than Silver just my thoughts for my system.

Great system! May I know which exact model of the XLO cables are you using for both interconnects and speaker cables?

Thanks.

yes, yes, yes. You have made the right moves. If your system were moves in a chess game. You would win in just four moves.

nice system! Have thought of trying the pass labs amp and preamp myself. What kind of music do you enjoy?
