Thiel Owners

Just a note to point out that if you like 3.5's otherwise, four or five of them in a room eliminates any need for a sub while anything resembling recommended surround placement generally also eliminates bass room nodes.

Not sure if serial numbers for all Thiel models are of interest here, but I have the following pairs:  CS 2 2s: 7599,7600 and 3.7s 131,132. I am the original owner of the 2 2s and (probably) the third owner of the 3.7s.

At one show before the advent of surround, we positioned 2 pairs of 3.5s in the normal stereo position - back to back. There was about 5' between the back-firing pair and the wall and plenty of side wall space as well. The effect is magnificent. The bass wave forms a quasi spherical wave front and the transition to upper frequency in-fill is seamless. If you like bi-polar presentation, try it. That's if you have a spare pair of 3.5s, or your main speaker of choice, available.

A pair of Thiel 3.7s just hit the market:

FWIW, I've bought several items before from that seller.  Good guy!

Nice Catch! Hope these 3.7s find a good (new) home.

Happy Listening!
