Thiel Owners

I talked to a Thiel rep just after I bought the 3.7's.He told me how special the Les Paul Editions are and that he said to find the best amp possible for them!No Emos he said!I had already ordered the Xpa 5 a week before.Thinking the Xpa 1 s would be a lot better,I ordered them the next Christmas.They are really not bad for the price but played much better with my 805's.On good recordings my 3.7's sound great!On average to bad recordings not so much!My B&W's are much more forgiving!I do have a vintage Halfler 280 xl left over?Was thinking of trying it but only 140 per channel and no balanced inputs.Probably a waste huh?

Can you elaborate on what makes the Les Paul 3.7s special? Different than standard production 3.7s?

Better X- over parts?  More closely matched drivers? , ????.

I would heed dicockrum's advice. Under powered is probably one of the things that causes the most damage to drivers. Don't know your amps but worth avoiding damage in the 1st place.

 Les Paul edition speakers sonically the same as regular 3.7 's.The difference is that they were finished by Gibson,just like a sunburst Les Paul.Each speaker was signed on the back by Les Paul.Only 13 pair were made total.3 pair went to auction,leaving 10 pair left for sale.5 pair in sunburst,5 in tobacco sunburst.Thiel rep told me msrp was 18k.All of this and I'm using Emotiva? Unfortunately,they will have to do for now.I do like the idea of trying a class d amp with them?
 

P.s ,Les Paul's came with factory outriggers.

There was a pair of 3.7s Les Paul Edition speakers on USAUDIOMART a few months ago for sale for $6800. The ad expired (never said sold). Does anyone know if these ever sold? They were a nice looking pair. I can no longer respond to the seller, since they're expired. If you go to the website and enter 649304777 in the search line, you can see them.
