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!

To robinbarbour's statement that once you have Thiel in your system you "can't let go..."

True!

My CS 3.5's are irreplaceable. They remain the one component that I've found to be my reference source without consideration for price up or down - especially up. Can't be beat. 

Even when an opportunity and finances present themselves for a move up the Legacy models line my 3.5's won't be sold or traded - they're THAT good. 

I also have a pair of Meadowlark Kestrels at my gf's house that continue to make me happy as hell.  Pat McGinty was quite similar in many respects to Jim Thiel regarding coherency and design approach to loudspeakers and they too represent bargains on the used market. If you can find a pair for your second system by all means scoff 'em up - damn good speakers overall. 

Thiel, Pass, B. A. T.;  I'm in heaven. 

Happy new year all,  I'm gonna blast "Fanfare For The Common Man" later this afternoon.

As above-

for my own personal curiosity I want to demo both Verity Audio and Magico loudspeakers.  I would never "quit" my sweet CS 2.4SE speakers.

I tend to agree that Thiel on the used/demo market, simply, cannot be touched for the price vs performance ratio. Add to these facts that Rob Gillum is holding it down at Thiel KY for our legacy models and it is a no-brainer.
