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!

Looking at my last Dirac Live measurement there seems to be a shoot over around 800hz > 1000hz, so the 30hz won't be a loss at that point.

Holco - the woofer is 4 ohm, then incorporate any zobel network values for actual woofer impedance.

Perhaps talk to Jantzen about unwinding.
In term of low frequency measurement, please be careful with room affect.  Based on the plot above, it shows that at 30Hz, the energy is the same as at 1KHz which does not seem to be right.  The energy of the speaker should be down quite a bit at that low frequency.

I did some listening at a friend's house.

He recently moved from tube amps (AR) to a solid state Bryston amp.Vinyl set up.  He has access to high end stuff so he currently has a $25,000 phono stage, $12,000 cartridge, and extremely revealing speakers from Vivid (replacing for the moment his smaller monitors from another company).

I've heard his system get more and more transparent and detailed along the way.


And...I could barely listen to it by this point.

To my ears, it was all super detail and transparency, without a bit of human or organic warmth at.  All icy and cold and thin and hardened.

When I got back and spun tunes on my Thiel/Conrad Johnson set up, I just wanted the hug my system, it was so much bigger, richer, more beautiful and satisfying.

Thank You for sharing your experience. Testimony, is the best compliment  to reach others who may be thinking about changing Audio gear.  Amazing the dollar amount one can spend yet never connects to the Soul of music.


Happy Listening!
