Thiel Owners

Welcome! Good to see you here. I believe that there is a 7.2 owner on the Panel.  Stay tuned until you receive an answer to your query.
I look forward in reading more about your musical tastes and system.

Happy Listening!

GS - no definitive answer. Check with Rob G at Coherent Source Service. Photos may be required. Generally speaking, the high mass of that baffle precludes much movement in use. Shipping ? If mine, I would consider an expansive hydraulic grout or cementatious epoxy repair.

Stspur - thanks for your report. I am interested in further sonic developments through time. Let us know what you hear.

Good Morning Tom Thiel and All Thiel owners

Update on the wiring of my 2.7 ,
I replaced the 15.5 with 17.5 awg wiring on the mid range of the coaxial
speaker to equalize the resistance , it sounded like the mid / treble
was louder or more pronounced .
It seems like without modifying the crossovers that whatever wiring 
one upgrades to the resistance should be the same for both ,
at the same time it can't be to low .
Measurement on the 15.5 was .2 ohms for 3 feet ,
on the 17.5 it was .3 ohms for 3 feet ,
the JSC 16 that was removed was .5 ohms for the 3 feet to the coaxial speaker .
I've contacted Cardas about their measurements for the
15.5 , 17.7 and 18.5 sizes , I'm sure they have more accurate readings 
than my SnapOn multi-meter .
I might consider trying the 18.5 but as of now I couldn't be happier 
with everything I'm hearing .

Tom what is the resistance measurement of the 18 guage Straight wire ? 

Rob

From Cardas
Ten feet of 15.5 AWG measures 0.1411 ohms.
Ten feet of 17.5 AWG measures 0.1638 ohms.
Ten feet of 18.5 AWG measured 0.1883 ohms.
Ten feet of 20.5 AWG measures 0.2279 ohms.

So little differences yet one can hear it .
