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 for listing your serial numbers. I do not believe that I have seen SN that low for CS 2.4- special speakers indeed.  Happy Listening!

I think it may become a future classic.  It is a really unique design.  I don't know what others are thinking but there are really nothing about the new speaker designs that interest me.  Maybe I would like to listen to some of the Vandersteen's some day but others than that, there are not too much out there that catches my attention.  A few years ago, Absolute Sound named a pair of speakers (I'd rather not reveal the name) that costs about $100K as the best speakers in the world.  But other than the all aluminum cabinets, the design is more or less a square box with slightly rounded edges to improve diffraction.  It uses high order filters and the drivers although were specifically designed in house, I am sure I could obtain similar quality drivers either from Scan Speak, Seas or Accuton.  I am a bit disappointed in general in most speaker manufacturers.  Most of them are just too derivative.
On my 2.4's there is no serial numbers. Could have been wiped off? Or maybe someone put a new plate on there, but not from what I understand with the previous owner.

Right On! as prof can attest, one is going to have to spend more, much more, to better these modern Thiel loudspeakers.  Good to read that you are enjoying your 2.4 loudspeakers. I knew that you would enjoy them.

Happy Listening!
