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!

Finally, after three changes of management at Thiel since Jim and Kathy, a review in this month’s Stereophile of Thiel’s new $7K TT1 flagship. Higher order crossovers, Chinese cabinet, Norwegian or Danish drivers. The design has no apparent connection to the legacy models save the nameplate.

dgarretson-

whom owns the Thiel name now? Is the operation still based in Nashville TN ?

We know that for the legacy models, there is still a function in Kentucky.

Another thought;
do we want any other entity carrying on Jim/Kathy designs ?
I do not, as it would never be the same.

Owned Theil 3.5s; never liked bass booster/ equalizer. Definitely more transparent w/o it. Straight ahead, 8-11' away, 200-300watts SS and they will sing! Kathy wrote me that warranty was at its end as she sent last midrange driver. Sold them; Went through ProAc, Wilson then ended with Avalon
