Thiel CS3.6 and Aerial 10T Comparison

I have a pair of 10T's and recently toyed with the idea of moving to Thiel. I ended up staying with my Aerials because, in the end, my 10T's are not the weakest link in my systme. The drivers are newer in the Thiel's, that may make a difference, depends on the sound you are looking for. The 10T's are a very romantic speaker that have held up well over the years.

If accuracy of timbre, phase and timing are important to you, keep the Thiels.

IMHO, the 10T's might be more dynamic and the 3.6's more coherent. I think both benefit from plenty of high quality power. Both excellent products, just a matter of personal preference.

the 10t is one of the loudspeakers that is definately a music lover's speaker. if you have a big and evergrowing music collection and want to enjoy all of it, its a great investment. if your goal is the have a time/phase accurate speaker as an end-all, stick with thiel.

I would audition the Aerials before I purchased them - I was disappointed by many other speakers (trying to be nice here) before I returned to the 3.6 - They allow me to really enjoy the music, without having to worry about the "next best thing", or another brand...
