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!

I want to ensure I have this right... both the CS2 2 and the CS3.6 require the FerroTech APG L17 ferrofluid - correct?

Excuse the long post...

I had initially searched and read through most of this thread (phew) before posting. I like to line my facts up and have parts before I start pulling a functioning item apart. I saw the list of capacitors Thiel used and I have suspicions about what I will find. I guess I will have to wait until I pull my board.

BTW, Maybe I will create a FAQ doc for each of the two models that I can give people access to where we can record all the see details, reviews, resources, etc...

Me and my gear:

I like to listen to about any type of music, and like most of us I go through phases. My range is too wide to go into, but let's say 60's & 70's rock, progressive/alternative, soul, R&B, and blues, classical. I am having a great time rediscovering that range of music on the Thiels.

The gear list for my two systems includes Krell and Hafler amps, BEL Canto DACs, and the "other" speakers are Von Schwiekert VR4JRs. I have made my cables: Beldan #10 speaker cable, and  interconnects from Blue Jeans. Nothing crazy, just good-sounding equipment.

While listening at low levels I am searching for an amp that is a better match for the CS3.6s. I want to find a relatively modern and repairable model. I had a line on a Proceed HPA2, but the age, reparability, and possibility of taking the CS3.6 out disqualified it. Thoughts?

Thank You for the follow up. Long posts are always welcomed here. There are many CS 3.6 fans and owners on The Panel. Stay tuned until one of our experts chimes in to address a Power Amp.

 

Happy Listening!
