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!

Rob will only have the CC SAs which were CC's best at the time, for the series feeds.
Appears that @vair68robert has CS2.7, not CS2.4, so Rob's Clarity SAs are almost certainly incorrect capacitance

You guys are the greatest and are stimulating me to start the speaker project earlier , like after ThanksGiving .
The info you are giving me ( and all Thiel owners ) is priceless 
and knowing you are willing to offer such great advise alleviates 
all my anxiety .

Larger gauge in than out , I would have never of thought about that ,
at the same time Tom is saying don't increase the size .

I will start researching speaker terminals with internal mechanical connections , like a Furutech IEC connector I installed on my amp 
This sounds like a good first step along
with the thicker gauge in and out .

And yes I will keep the thread posted , but the 2.7 is so new I doubt  many owners are thinking about mesing with them yet .

Thank You Guys for all your help and expertise .

This is alot more fun than just plain retirement !

Rob - to be clear, I meant to keep the 18 gauge going to the drivers, but you can increase the size between binding posts and XO panel.
Normal binding posts work. I'm saying to wrap the wire tightly before soldering. Let us all know when you find the perfect binding posts.

As you're retired, you might have some fun reviewing the Thiele/Small Parameters. 

I built my own speakers back in the monaural and early stereo days - - well before the Thiele/Small parameters were published.   Wish they'd been available then. 

Lotsa' fun.
