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!

Arvincastro, the audible differences between the 20 and 40 Hz setting is very dependent (!) on the particular music recordings and the listening room.

 
Great Improvement!
My 2.4's were a little hot and i had a mid upper bass "bloom". 
i got a Richard Gray RGPC 400 and foam bass traps and side panels.
What a difference. The bloom is flattened out and the bass has extended! Better yet, the ear "burn" on my aging ear drums is gone.
I also found the stereo image has changed, so i have a to move the speakers around to find that sweet spot. nice  i don't have the bass nodes any more. 
unsound typically relates a valid point regarding how good the 3.5’s are.  My listening room was 24 long by 14 wide with a ceiling sloping from 9 to 17 feet. On the left is a wall, on the right the wall is 14 feet away. 

Tough room to tame. 

As I’ve related before my listening level is, 90% of the time, conservative. My amps were almost all uniformly 150/8 ohms, 300/4ohms - IMHO quite sufficient for my needs. (Pass Labs, B A T., ARC, to name a few.)  Good stuff. 

With just a little bit of cable swapping and very minor positioning the 3.5’s had no issues putting out excellent sound.  I always employed the EQ. They were designed to use them so who was I to quibble?

The only other speakers I’d owned that managed the same effect were Maggies - albeit with a lot more fussing and sacrificing the low end. 

Financial setbacks and and a whole lotta other shite conspired against me in 2018,  forcing me to sell off all my equipment.  I’m now listening with a Bluesound integrated through Meadowlark Kestrels - it ain’t bad considering my budget. 

When my circumstances improve I am going to reconfigure from the ground up. First order will be finding a pair of 3.5’s, having Coherent Source bring ‘em up to snuff, then look for amplification. This will easily exceed the basic cost of a used pair of 3.5’s, but my previous statements that Thiels are an investment, not just a purchase, holds truer for me now than ever before.  And I won’t get as crazy with the whole equipment thing this time around, either. 

This forum is still impressive - 6000+ posts and nary anything negative. Bravo. 
Ob, my exploration in alternative setup for the 3.5 are motivated by lack of original mid-range and tweeter replacements and parts for damaged eq. Just like you, I value the Sonic properties of the 3.5 and want to examine ways to preserve or enhance what we have.
