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!

those outboard crossovers are HUGE on the Avalons!
Those were arguably the best speaker on the planet when new, certainly on the short list. A three-way with high-order filters takes a lot of parts.

For my CS2.4s,  I imagine a XO cabinet would be speaker width, maybe 10" deep and about 1' tall. The cabinet would be vented/screened top and bottom for maximal air flow.

Yeah, I'm not sure Thiel's would typically need such large cases for cross-overs, except perhaps for the CS5's. Perhaps something that resembled typical components might be found more acceptable to some?

If external cross-overs were to be considered perhaps both pre and post cross-over amplification could be considered too?

I am most curious about upgrades for the 3.5's! There are a few different things that could be done with that model.

More to discover
