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!

On the subject of cable/equipment “burn in”...

I’ve been in the wine business for my entire adult life. Some folks consider me an “expert”, most others far more advanced in this profession than I  respect my experience and opinion. 

It continues to impress me how some of my colleagues are able to extract nuances and/or subtleties in a wine that I miss, and vice versa. There are people attuned to things that I am not and it’s a helluva lotta fun to sit around listening to how they arrive at their opinions, and my own as well. 

Can one hear the changes produced at a cable’s molecular level by running current through it for a while?  I have to say yes in all probability because,  in my profession I’ve witnessed folks correctly guessing the origin of a wine, it’s vintage, even it’s vineyard location - tasted in a blind setting.  That I may not be able to detect any difference doesn’t detract from my enjoyment of it. 

In fact it serves to magnify it.

Spoken like a true connoisseur in hobby, life and work.  Good to see you here as always. I will keep my eyes peeled for those 2.2 or 2.3 models.
Happy Listening!

Our senses are both objective and subjective depending on the breadth, depth,  of the matter at issue.  Good to see you.  Happy Listening!

Thank You for the technical, even physical nature, of cabling  within a scientific framework.  I consider your background and education pivotal here.  Hope you are well and enjoying the New York state Fall.
Happy Listening!
oblgny - wine serves as an instructive analogy. What layered appreciations are out there!
