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!

With all the talk about integrating a REL subwoofer and SS2, I’m curious about anyone else’s setup if you have one. I’ve got a Martin Logan Descent that has nice, tight bass complemented well with my previous 2.4s and which hasn’t skipped a beat integrating with my 2.7s. It’s amazing on musical passages and most movies but I have heard other subs, beasts intended to necessitate an annual budget for window repair, that really do sound better for certain blockbuster-type movies. Not ready to give up my ML just yet since these movies only make up less than 5% of the time I use my system.  Of course I would consider replacing it with a Thiel sub but that’s probably lowest in my list of changes. Bass is something I must plead ignorance because I’m not sure I could tell the difference between two high quality subs (unless one is in just another league or serves a very specific purpose like blowing the roof off your house). That said, does anyone else have ML that supplement the bottom of their Thiels? I would be curious how you came to your settings? I know everyone’s environment is different, but would like to know the process itself and if there was anything unique with respect to integrating with Thiels, particularly the 2.4/2.7.
I have a REL stentor III placed in the front left corner.  I used an SPL meter to match the volume and have the crossover set at 30Hz. Speakers are 3.7s, and room size is 16x20.

Welcome! batmanfan

I can attest that the Marado finish is special and beautiful indeed. Good to read that you found this thread- I trust that you will find it useful.

Yes, Bryston power amps are a sonic match for our beloved Thiel speakers. What other gear is in your system?


Happy Listening!

Good to see you again - dhoff01

the REL Stentor III is a very fine sub indeed. I can only imagine how well -balanced your system sounds.

Happy Listening!
