Thiel 2.4s vs 2.4 SE sound quality?

Gentlemen,

Just wondering if anyone has been able to compare the two directly. I have a pair of 2 2s that I still enjoy, but was thinking of getting newer Thiels. Aside from the cosmetics, is there a significant improvement in sound quality with the SE and if so, what are the differences?

Thanks for your input.

Another vote for the CS 2.4, it has a very rich-sounding presentation to these ears. Should be a nice upgrade from the 2.2 as the OP indicates.

Happy Listening!

A follow up;
The CS 2.4SE is even sweeter than the standard 2.4 (if you can imagine it).
So, I bought a pair earlier this year. Happy Listening!

I'm seriously considering a pair of 2.4's. I currently have a pair of Meadowlark Swifts, and want to move up the resolution and frequency extreme chain. 

My only issue is that I listen very much in the nearfeield, and I've read that the Thiels need room to coalesce. If so, this is a deal breaker for me.

Does anyone have any insight?
