Thiel Owners


Guys-

I just scored a sweet pair of CS 2.4SE loudspeakers. Anyone else currently or previously owned this model?
Owners of the CS 2.4 or CS 2.7 are free to chime in as well. Thiel are excellent w/ both tubed or solid-state gear!

Keep me posted & Happy Listening!

As above,

I only know of (1) Thiel Dealer that has these speakers post Jim's death.
Goldprint Audio in NC.  Taylor is a good guy and operates out of his personal residence.

He gives the newest offerings a positive review. He carries Krell and Kimber Kable as well.
jafant,

Why? Is something wrong or some deficiency with my current Pass amps?

Thanks

I have not read about an owner using Pass Labs on those ultra high-end speaker models.  I suppose that the top of the line PL would work nicely.

Figure $100k on a pair of said speakers. Add another $100K (at least) on gear to drive them. Finally, most important, another $50K (low end) on proper cabling to tie the system together.

By my math= $250K to get started.  Happy Listening!
jafant,

Yes, System I heard at last years AXPONA was total 250k with CAT electronics. I expected intimate knowledge and first hand experience for this kind of recommendation; Not what you can read on the internet and suppose, dream and take a wild guess at.
My post says; I liked a pair that I heard. Not that I was buying. Rockports are what I am interested in and would easily match with my Pass amps.
 I think you surf the web and waste dealers time auditioning cables and equipment. 
Stick with your Thiels and buy a system that you can post and listen.

Regards,

Congrats, nkonor, for discerning that the Emperor has no clothes.

Happy Listening!
