Thiel Owners

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!

I was thinking about you as I saw the Blue Note and Village Vanguard landmarks yesterday.  Fellow Jazz Hound.

Happy Listening!

Hi guys and hello to you jafant, i hope you guys are doing well it's been a while i haven't posted on this thread.@jafant  any evolution on your gear search for your CS2.4SE ?Even though i sold my CS 3.7s early this year because i didn't have the funds to purchase the rest of the gear to make them sing they are still one o my all time favorire speakers and who knows if in the future i have the opportunity the build a system, the CS 3.7s will still be in my mind.Meanwhile i enjoy my great headphone rig which is very convenient when you don't have a dedicated room for speaker system.Cheers.
