Thiel Owners

Happy Friday!  All

Same with me Jafant - heard the 3.6's in the early 90's when they first came out and I was smitten -  25 years later still in my system,

I also own the mighty CS6 but they cannot replace the 3.6!

Started with CS .5 in 1996.  Targeted and finally acquired 2.4s in 2011.   

Pops - nice to see you. I picked up a pair of 3.6s last year and listened, and said wow. Then I measured it and said wow. Then I looked at the crossover and said wow. The 3.6 in 1992 followed the 1990 2.2. For the 3.6, Jim had delved into finite element analysis to make serious refinements to the driver motors to radically lower distortion - and Vifa loved the collaboration. Lots of that stuff is now in broad use.

The 3.6 was the last Thiel product in which I directly participated in the development. After that my work was almost entirely process and capability development for the coming larger products.

That tweeter was developed for the CS5 and trickled down to the 2.2 and 3.6.

Good to see you today. Hope that you are well and safe in your locale.
Model CS6 is mighty according to pics, indeed.

Happy Listening!
