Thiel Owners

In light of Tom's professional opinion, I would keep these loudspeakers. It is rare to find such low S/N.  Very cool to learn that this is an original design by Jim.

Happy Listening!

My response crossed yours in space. These speakers were not modded. A resistor lead touching a coil does not make electrical contact since the coil wire is insulated with varnish. I suggest you do some manual housekeeping so that nothing touches anything else and get to know your new speakers. We have considerable experience in upgrading 2.4s which we can apply either with these boards or with new boards. See if you can find beetlemania's report(s) earlier in this thread. He or jafant might guide you to the pages - this is a very long thread . . .

Thank You for providing your expert opinion and corresponding History lesson. 

Good to learn that halifax owns the original design per Jim. Regarding your CS 2.4 speakers- what are the Serial Numbers (s/N)?

Happy Listening!

Yes! beetlemania is the MAN! at DIY. I will search for the initial  page that kicks off his upgrading XO talk.

start with Page 190. The XO upgrade talk begins there, moving forward. Take your time as there is much to digest. It is good to have another DIY'er on the panel.

Happy Listening!
