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!

@erik_squires,  At the risk of appearing to be tit for tat, this post just a few days ago on 5/17/20 didn't come with much of a caveat:

@Unsound

While I apologize for the confusion, I didn’t think I needed to make a caveat when the OP clearly established the boundaries of the conversation in the thread you posted as being about the Thiel CS2, which was reviewed at least as early as 1985:

and the Vandersteen 2c which was reviewed at least by 1989:

If you wanted to know if I meant to review all Vandersteen and all Thiel speakers forever, then you should have asked the question as such and I would have said "no, no I do not."

If you wish to hold me to an editorial standard of writing complete monologues each time I post on this hobby site then we can discuss an appropriate salary.

When the freakin pandemic is over, y’all who visit Seattle can hear some 2.3 that are lovely
And Vandy 7’s and the matching amplifiers, yes I know how spoiled ( blessed I am )

Precisely- articulate and musical (timbre) are the exact characteristics that sold me on the CS 2.4 vs. Vandy 3A signature in the same room, same gear.  To date, I have not heard the 5A/5A carbon(signature).
I did hear the Quattro and Treo and these two models do not better CS 2.4 through CS 3.7 to my ears. Model Seven is unreal and could very well  be the absolute sound (custom room must accompany these loudspeakers). Hifi Buys Atlanta has such a room.

Happy Listening!
