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!

And he used the Goertz flat wire, which has the lowest characteristic impedance, which is a requirement for very low impedance speaker loads.

I would imagine that the CS5i’s woofers without the added pads on the original CS5’s would help in that regard. I thought the “i” version was a nice improvement.

unsound - the rubber pads were to add mass to lower the resonance frequency. Turned out that the center plugs did a better job of that. There were also some motor improvements. That's when Jim was getting his legs with FEA for motor geometry and all that.

I would like to see you revive your SCD-1 player. It is quite nice to have a dedicated CD and SACD player.  Hope that you are well and looking forward to the fast-approaching holiday season.

Happy Listening!
