Thiel cs2.4 upgrade to cs 2.4 se

Dear holco and beetlemania, 

The mid and high have opened up with more air and sense of space. The tonal balance has shifted towards slightly warmer as compared to very neutral in the original caps. All acoustic instruments  sound wonderful particularly violin as it sounded sweeter but less impressive for modern instruments. Imaging also improved significantly with a larger object.

Nevertheless, i hear the sound is changing with the caps started to break in. I shall post my exprience and seek advices from Tom  in thiel owner thread after the caps have run in.

Perhaps, i can post a video for sharing.

These are the video taken from my system  before caps upgrade.

For comparison, i will share the video after the caps upgrade 2 or 3 weeks later when the caps settled in. I welcome any opinions and views after the upgrade.

Hi desmond888,

It is very difficult to judge the sound quality in your video, but I can hear that the sound is nicely open, also notice that your room has a lot of problems with reflections, think it's a good idea to do something about it, the reward will be great!!

Dear holco,
Thank you for your concern. In fact, i dont have any room issues. I have a tall ceiling, it is about 14 feet high and my system is opened and layback. If i play full orchestra classical music, it sounds like i m sitting in the concert hall with a tall ceiling.
I guess  the video picked up some echo from the back wall where the recording was made.

Btw, may i know what brand of the solder thiel is using? I found out that the melting point is higher. I used wbt solder with silver content but intend to use thiel solder to match with the rest of the soldering points.

Beetlemania, for my curiosity, may i know what brand of the mpt caps thiel is using ?
