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!

thank you.   I really cannot emphasize enough how much the new P15 power plant transformed my system.   As i posted in my review on their website: "I have not heard my system with the BHK mono blocks (have the BHK 250), so what I am going to say now may seem a bit of hyperbole, but if I had to choose between the mono blocks and no P15, or one BHK 250 amp and the P15, I know what I would do. https://forum.psaudio.com/t/my-review-of-the-new-p15-power-regenerator/6712

tomthiel,

Despite recommendations to the contrary, and as with so many other recommendations here, I think there are better alternatives:

 * "2 Ohm  Stable for musical transients"

Perhaps for earlier Thiel's, but later ones live hovering just over 2 Ohms.

* "...though it will perform at its best with speakers having an impedance of 4 Ohms and above.- John Atkinson"

all i can say is that i have zero problems driving my current 3.7's and the recently departed 2.7's.  specs do not always give us the entire picture. You can bet that when Bascom H King designs a high end amp,  it will work with almost any fine speaker
