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!

Excellent points all around. I concur with prof. My ears agree with yours.

Good to read that you are having fun building speakers and fine-tuning with Conrad Johnson / Pass Labs. Both of those pre-amps are excellent in their own designs.


Happy Listening!

Good to see you again. You will have to look high and low to better a Thiel loudspeaker.  It never hurts to demo other brands on the flip-side.


Happy Listening!

I think there was a thread where prof auditioned tons of speakers but he couldn't find a reason to switch.

prof and I had a couple of discussions on the 3.7 vs 2.7 Thiels. 
I was able to audition both speakers over a couple of weeks at the dealer's, using my collection of classical and organ CDs.   I settled for the 2.7s, plus a SS2.2 sub,   Close contest, but the sub made the difference.

Your ears did not deceive - it is very close comparing the CS 2.7 to CS 3.7 models.  Room size is the contributing factor I found.


Happy Listening!
