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!

The Pass, like my Thiels, comprise the reference points for what is now easily the best system I've had.  I simply can't believe I could do any better spending significantly more unless, of course, I could move up a notch or two with either. It's not fanaticism, it's that the law of diminishing returns would seriously apply. 

The Pass does run warm, to the side of "hot" for some, but I'll say very warm. It sits centered atop my Salamander cabinet, so there's no concern about thermal buildup. I usually let the B. A. T. pre and the amp warm up for at least 15 minutes before listening, as doing so with the Primare/B. A. T. combo I had before definitely had positive effect. With the Pass it's just gravy. 

I know that Pass is one of your amp considerations. For me it's the best match for Thiel.  A colorless revealing speaker being driven by a colorless, uncompromising amp. 

Hard to top. 


thieliste,

I will use a separate SACD player, as well as, a separate CD player.

I will consider mono block power amps as well. I have time on my side, no rush, no hurry, just do it right!

Happy Listening!
