Thiel/Crutchfield


I guess it's not news anymore that Crutchfield is selling Thiel online. What seems odd is the pricing: 2.4's going for $2500, and 3.7's for $5000, shipping included.

Can anyone confirm the accuracy of these prices? If they are accurate what are the implications?

Best Buy prices their higher end speakers per speaker also... to help reduce the sticker shock is my guess.
The internet has changed things. Thiel is exploring new and different ways of reaching the customer without pissing off their remaining dealers. Nice move.
Seems like a cheap way to audition them at home for the cost of one way shipping. I really can't believe they are going to sell many of these sound unheard. I can just imagine the sound of the 3.7's on a nice sony reciever and dvd player!
Rcprince,
In all due fairness to Crutchfield, right next to the price is the word "each" in red (Summer 2007 catalog, p.71). After buying a car cd player from them a couple of years ago I still get their catalogs in the mail.
