I wouldnt take the chance. If you end up getting new drivers and/or have to ship them to Thiel, your savings (and time) are lost. These are really great speakers. they can be found in excellent condition at really good prices. Thiel made tons of this model and it seems to be one of those speakers that (reguardless of company who made them) people hate to upgrade from. If it was me I would wait and save a little longer and get a nicer pr. Good luck either way you go!
Thiel cs 3.6
Hi ALL,
I am looking to buy a pair of 3.6's and have run across a pair that to me seem pretty rough. The price is $650 the problems are: both tweeters are dented, one mid has nicks in the face, one woofer cone is dented, one binding post needs small repair or replace, cabinets are good with scuffs that can be cleaned up, the thiel logo on the fronts are both ruined. Will the dents in the cones cause problems? I believe I can clean up and repair cosmetic issues to make them look nice ( they are in the black finish ) Would this be a good deal-good price, or would you just avoid?
Also, would my Halo A21 drive these well?
Thanks, Tracy
