Very nice system. But, are you done now?
Title: Re: My system!
Post by: thuffman03 on November 20, 2009, 06:40:13 PM
No!  Well for the next month or so.  Something else will come along.  I could go for another Sunfire Sub.  LOL

Hey T. what are you doing with the Theil, TFM-55 and all the other goodies you have?
 Also you should seek help! You and Tommy have a serious OCCD problem..

The Thiels are in the HT in my downstairs game room.  The TFM 55 is now powering them.  OMG they sound even better now with the 55 on them.  I had a TFM 25 on them and they sounded good but the 55 kicks ass!

You should make a beemers417.  This way no one else will and you can do Good, Bad, Ugly and Insane.

Tom,

Those Al-III's look like the ones I sold last Summer to a friend in New York.  I miss those beautiful speakers!
Title: Re: My system!
Post by: thuffman03 on November 23, 2009, 11:48:12 PM
They are a wonderful sounding speaker.  I heard a set about a year ago.  Tom, OCCD, made a set for Marty and color matched them to his wifes request.  They came out great and I had a chance to hear them and just had to have a set.  A few months later I came across this set on craigslist and snatched them up.
Title: Re: My system!
Post by: thuffman03 on December 11, 2009, 04:35:39 PM
Okay....I got the extra shelf for my audio rack and I am 90% hooked up now.  I just need one cable to get the Sunfire hooked back up and it should be here in about an hour.

It is an okay stand.  Not the best but not bad either.

The one good thing about it was it was modular.  I was able to add a shelf so I could get the second amp in there.

Post by: thuffman03 on October 03, 2010, 02:00:04 PM
I have no plans of selling any Sunfire amps at this time.  This amp will be replacing my two TFM-15's and TFM-25 in my HT.

Thanks everyone for the very nice comments.  I have been wanting a 600x2 for a while now.

600x2?  :o  Have a spare 300x2 lying around?  8)

Yes and no.  I have two 300's.  One has the same problem yours does and the other I am not going to part with.  I find it too convenient to have a backup Sunfire in case I blow one up.

I do have a Carver TFM 55 I will be putting on the market to sell.

   I wondered where those speakers went...  They are excellent when properly positioned.
Is that a True Image amp?  :o

Excellent system T.   
Title: Re: My system!
Post by: thuffman03 on March 01, 2012, 04:44:17 PM
Very good pick up on the amp.  It is a True Image.  I snagged it off of eBay about a month ago.  It is a great amp.  125wpc of class A power.

Tom.

Very nice systems, looks like you picked up a set of Cherry 305's I hope
you enjoy them as much as I enjoyed mine.

Are those things 2 ways, Tom, or are there drivers I can't see in the photo?

How do they sound?

There is a side firing woofer in each cab. They have a weird vent in the back, kind of like a T-line but not quite. Awesome tweeters valued in the 2-300 range. They crank too. We tried them out on my old Hafler 500 and had the old shop shaking.
Sorry Tom, I know the question was directed at you, but I saw it first  :P
Title: Re: My system!
Post by: thuffman03 on March 02, 2012, 09:31:25 AM

Yes, they are Bob Carvers 305's with the KT120's in them.

Your systems look great!

I also use various Squeezebox products throughout my house. I was wondering what file format you use for streaming?
