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!
I know audiophiles don’t admit physical aesthetics. But the 3.6 and 3.7 are as different as it gets in the Thiel line. Another thought is that the 3.6 drivers are completely Thiel design and build. OK the tweeter was assembled by Vifa, but it’s all-Thiel, unlike the 3.5 which were modifications of normal, pre-FEA era.
Hi Tom, I can't believe I had the restraint to not buy the 3.7. I listened to it a lot at 2 different shops with difference electronics. And to top it off it was my wife pushing me to do it!
The 3.6 was like an old girlfriend, just couldn't give her up!
When it comes to true Jim Thiel designed models with first order slopes/coherent source CS models I imagine the 3.7 is the ‘best’ model or top of the heap. After the 3.7......what is most desirable? 2.3 or 2.4? 3.6? 1.5 or 1.6?
these are the most reasonable sized models and I’m talking using in a normal sized room. Thanks for comments as I’d really like to own a pair of Thiels at some point and 3.7 is a bit too large.
