Thiel is officially closed!!

beetlemania,

Yes,  Phil's reference to a 10" woofer had confused me.  Thiel's own literature on the 2.7 state an 8" woofer.  (I would open up my 2.7 grills and confirm, except that I've got them fitted so perfectly they are a bit hard to take off).

So I've always wondered if perhaps Phil miswrote either "2.7" when he meant to refer to the 3.7, or miswrote "10" when he meant to talk about the 2.7's 8 inch woofer.

BTW,

Rob Gillum returned my reply and...whew!..he is indeed taking over the THIEL Service department and service will continue to be available for legacy Thiels.

Thanks Prof! This is indeed great news. With this level of loyalty and demand, this is a good business model, and I'm glad they worked out whatever details. If anyone speaks to him, please convey thanks.

It's something I recently considered and made me think twice about buying Dan D'Agostino's mono blocs given Dan's age and the size of the company.

+1  There's only ONE Dan D'Agostino!

i am very pleased to read all the comments above and also to read that Rob is going to keep things going.   I would suspect that there is no more coverage under warranty given that he is essentially starting a new biz,  but i for one am just grateful to know he is out there for all us Thiel lovers.  I hope to keep my 2.7's going for many a year.
