Thiel Owners

Beetle, I haven't yet looked at the 3.5, but will look into it. The equalizer could indeed be ignored in an upgrade. The 3.5 has 6-nines coils and hookup wire and custom 1uF styrene bypasses. We could renew the 'lytics with best of class 'lytics, especially in shunts. But any 'lytics in Signal Path would benefit from our newly developing custom CSA-160 volt propylene cap. Mills resistors. Possible SP feed coil upgrade. Layout can be addressed by building a new midrange board to allow space on the main board for woofer and tweeter upgrade bulk. I'm settling to a system. I "did" the 3.6 today with our first-round assumptions which need confirmation with first-pair trials of 2.4 and PPs.

As can be seen in this thread, and another speaker thread I have going, I have a roving eye for speakers.  I just like trying various types.
But even if I purchase another speaker I can't see myself ever getting rid of my 2.7s.  Too good, and the bargain I paid was ridiculous for the performance. 

I love electronic music and the 2.7s are a dream for that category.  Their particularly dense, punchy, solid imaging and gorgeous tonality make electronic music feel like another dimension has been summoned in and around the speakers.  I never get tired of it.

Sounds good, Tom. Seems to be some demand for that model! And maybe someone will step up to address the equalizer?

@prof   i would really be interested in some recommendations for electronic music.   do not have much but my favorite album is underwater sunlight by Tangerine Dream.  thanks in advance

Question , why are the 2.4 spec'd at 33 hz manuf ( 36hz stereophile )
and the 2.7s are 35hz manuf, when they both have the same woofer and approximately the same size cabinet ?
Crossovers ? why would the newer speakers have less ?

I'm not complaining about the 2.7s lower end
(  especially after moving from 2 way speakers )  
and 'am looking forward to the upgrade possibilities
but I thought I'd ask Why the difference .
