Thiel Owners

oblgny good strategy starting at the entry level for transparent cables.  That is the best way to find the sweet spot in the line, and being a long time Thiel owner I have proven to myself over and over you do not need reference wire to make your Thiels sing better than most.

Hi jafant,

I have a pair of Thiel CS2.4SE (the last pair made actually).  This was my upgrade from a pair of Thiel CS2 I bought in 1988.  I had been looking for a new pair of speakers for about 5 years, but nothing seemed to outperform (to my ears) the 2's until the 2.4's came along.

FYI, about the SE run: they only made 91 of the anticipated 150 pairs.  I got this info from Lana Ruth directly.  The run was cancelled during the time of flux in the company, due to the restructuring, and a lack of interest from their declining dealer network.

I'm very happy with the speakers.  These will probably be the last pair I own, unless I win the lotto and seek out a pair of 3.7's (to complement the new music room)...

Cheers,
Warren

Nice! Warren.

which #'s do you own? I have #'s 177 and 178. I love these speakers!
My initial audition was w/ #'s 50 and 51 about 3 years ago.
So rich in sound and presentation. Only if you have a very large listening space (20x20, 25x25 or 30x30) should you seek out the CS 3.7 model.
Plus, the massive amp(s) to drive them properly. Happy Listening!

Another query-
Warren, what other gear, including cabling, is in your system?
