Thiel Owners

my tenure w/ the CS 2.7 and CS 3.7 was spent w/ an Anthem 225 integrated amp over 4 months while on work assignment in Raleigh NC back in 2014. Both amp and loudspeakers were well broken-in and the music flowed effortlessly. Playback was as loud as I wanted w/o any clipping nor deterioration of sound/presentation. All flavors were represented from classical to world music.  I can only imagine the aural pleasure demonstrated w/ a higher end amp/separates combo.
Happy Listening!

hi Jafant,   truthfully i buy direct from PS but Taylor is only about 30 minutes from my home.   he is who i got my 2.7's from back in 2014.  of course the 3.7's  came from Rob at CST.  I have not been to Goldprint since i got the 2.7's and i know he has moved and expanded his operation.

Right On! ronkent
good to read that Taylor is doing well and expanding his operation. Success could not happen for a nicer gentleman of Audio.   Happy Listening!

I hate to always be contrary but from what I've read the PS audio BHK amps are voiced similarly to most Classe amps.  Both tend to be slightly on the laid back side.  It seems to me that the Classe amps should be balanced by some crystal clear solid state amps that some would find bright.  I'd probably go with Bryston.  I've never owned a Bryston amp but I do have BP25 and BP26 preamps.  They're extremely unsuperstitious and flat.  I would think that Bryston stuff could be used to make sure that crossover upgrades aren't making the speakers too bright.  

My first Thiels were the 2 2s.  I bought them from Audio Consultants in Chicago around 2010.  I consider them the audiophile end of the rainbow.  They were old when I got them.  They are supremely well balanced.  If you listen to unamplified acoustic music and aren't a billionaire this is as far as you need to go.  I understand why my 3.7s are better but they aren't all that much better.  

I know what you mean jon about your 2 2s.  I feel the same about my 3.6’s.  I have never heard or owned a speaker that floats my boat the way they do.  

I also own CS6’s, they are slightly more dynamic, play louder, but not better.  Maybe not as good.
