Thiel Owners

Tmsrdg - fishy agreed. Rob would have better information than I got from New Thiel. I sent you a PM.

it looks/sounds like my MCS1 has a blown coaxial driver. Rob can rebuild it for the price of an entry to mid level center speaker from Kef or Elac. So my dilemma is that do I have Rob do the rebuild or it's time to move on? I am using CS3.7 for my L and R and all Powerplane 1.2 for all surround channels. what would be a good MCS1 replacement with CS3.7?

KEF is highly regarded and Andrew Jones is a hall of fame level designer but I would stay with the Thiel. You *know* it’s beyond mid-level good, matches your stuff, and is made in US.

Well, these are the numbers that Rob assigned to my speakers. He may be distinguishing them from the original production run as they were assembled from original parts only a few months ago.

thielrules - yes, that makes sense.

richardyc - it may be of interest that the MCS crossover has some obvious and simply-made upgrade potential. The performance would be better than the CS2.4SE upgrade from a starting point below the regular 2.4.
