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!

Hey guys,

any experience/thoughts on Thiel 1.5's ?   Will they be enough for a 10X15 room? 


Thanks,
Greg


Welcome! zkga


yes, the CS 1.5 will be a good fit for your room. Think about adding a subwoofer, as this model, is a strict 2-way speaker. Keep me posted and Happy Listening!

Thanks Jafant, there's a pair of birdseye maple 1.5's here in Portland that look to be in really nice shape for 575.00 going to check them out at noon.  

I've been free of the audio addiction for a couple of years (living on a house boat does not make the turn table happy!) but just got a new place that has rooms to support it.  My past speakers were Dunlavy SCIVA's (all time favorite) that evolved into the Vandersteen range (2ce sig, 3A sig, quattro) after a move to a place that didn't have the needed room size. I never really got on with the vandersteens and missed the dynamics of the dunlavy's.   I'm hoping to find the accuracy that time aligned and phase coherent drivers bring and get some dynamics and impact back. 

Looking for 2.4, 2.7's as well for a bigger room... 
So I picked up the 1.5's today...near perfect shape (8 to 9 by agon rating) and quickly set them up with a NAD D3020 and anticables (main systems are boxed up for a move) and streaming pandora through a Galaxy S7... even with this far less than ideal set up they image really well and seam very accurate, not at all bright or harsh. 

their normal diet will be fed by a Linn LP12 through an Ayre  P-5XE phono and a Coda CsiB (400 into 8ohm, 800 into 4) 

After 20 minutes I like these enough to know they're worth hunting down a pair of Sound Anchor stands (or Target?) for.... need to get the tweeter height up a bit.

does anyone have any leads on good stands for these? 

Thanks,
