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!

Thanks for the update regarding wool batting.
My SEs had rectangular fiberglass batts (no paper backing) stuffed into the passive radiator chamber. My new boards have much more volume so I peeled off some of the batt volume in attempt to end up with similar residual fill.

Thank You for the DIY update.  How is the presentation and sound affected by peeling off the batt volume?

Happy Listening!

@jafant I made no comparison. Just assumed that the previous volume was “optimized”, a dubious assumption given that the volume can easily be modified by compression, ie, there is no one OEM volume that can be discerned. I merely made it as close as possible to how it was when I first removed the radiator to view to boards.
