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!

sandydennis11,

When I put my 3.7s up for sale recently I got quite a lot of interest.
(Of course, as usual, a bunch of it was flakey, but I did sell them relatively quickly).


Prof,  it’s the shipping costs that usually doesn’t help.  The crate and the pallet and professionally packing  is expensive. They would be dropped off in the room you want them in.
   The combo sounds great.
sandy,

I put up mine favouring local sale, but it was actually easier to sell them non-locally as I got a lot of interest from people all over.  As it was made clear in my ad hat buyer pays shipping everyone inquiring knew this and many wanted to arrange that the speakers were shipped to them.  So in a way I see the willingness to ship speakers should open up the number of offers.  Most people wouldn’t expect shipping to be included in the prIce.

All that said, I’m done buying/selling big speakers as they are a pain to ship.
We have a company out here that takes all the pain out of packing and shipping big speakers. They work with the Museums in SF, so they are the best and of course expensive. Would not trust any other movers. At least 2grand to ship to east coast.
And of course money seems not to be an object here in the home of Facebook, Google etc.  so selling used equipment is a bit of a struggle.
