Thiel 2.3 vs 2.4

David my attempt here was not to beat you into submission, but more to make you understand all of the experience and thought that went into my original comment.

Let me state clearly, you may love the CS2.3's and you should listen to them.

McTeague loves his and many others do too.

But now you have about 20% of my experience with the speaker and all of this going on and on I hope helps you find the right speaker that you can keep for as long as your 3.5's.

Thanks Everyone who participated and commented
Happy New year

Cinematic-
You didnt beat me into submission.
I just saw this thread as getting no where.
Besides,you said "dude,Im exhausted" so I figured I'd give ya a break!
Hey,there's a Thiel 7.2 thread just started.
Rest up and see ya there!!!

David99,

I did not read anywhere in your thread what sub Thiel had paired with the CS 2.4. Was it the SS2? I have talked to Sheri numerous times and she said it is seamless (no gaps) bass when paired with Thiel speakers. I have the CS 2.4 and the bass is deep and accurate, however I listen to chamber music and trance music which really puts the bass to the test. I would like to put one in my system and hear what it sounds like. Shari said it truely is an audiophile two channel sub.
You may want to save your pennies and wait for the unveiling of the CS 3.7. which is due out in 2005.
Maybe all us loyal Thiel users can get together for a pilgrimage to Lexington, KY for the debut of the CS 3.7. Since Cinematic-systems knows Thiel products so well he can be our spokesman and critique Jim Thiel on " How to design a speaker properly".

Irish65- The SS2 it was.
Go for the sub.
I could go on and on about the sub but you must (not)hear it yourself.It's a must have.

Shari is a straight shooter and rabid audiopihle.She knows good sound.

P.S. I'd love to take another trip to Lexington!
That Thiel room HAS to be experienced!
I live in NY but it was a beautiful drive.
Very nice state,'ol Kentucky! And the people there are all as pleasant as Shari!! :~)
