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!

pwhinson - thanks for the insight into how the Bel Canto Ref600s sound with the 2.4s; it seems Class D amps are generally not favored for Thiels but this is the first time I have heard details as to why for any specific make/model, and I have been wondering about these amps specifically because of their generally excellent reviews.  I also wonder about the PS Audio Stellar M700s (or even the S300) for the same reason.  Anyone else out there with ears-on experience with other Class D amps paired with Thiels?
I caution that we should distinguish between makes & models rather than commenting on "class D amps" in general. A lot of progress has been made with switching rates and filters so that some class D amps are leagues ahead of other class D amps.
Tom, aren't the smartsubs a class D switching amplifier? I was always curious about the power output at lower impedance.

Good to see you- robinbarbour


how is your Summer? Hope you are well and playing good music today.

Happy Listening!

across other Audio forums, I have read about other Thiel owners using Primare gear, as well as, Rogue Audio to excellent effect.  Hope this helps.  Happy Listening!
