Thiel Owners

Some (not all) of the above mentioned amps that come at rather high prices (too rich for my blood) suggest low impedance capability but don't actually commit to it in their specs. Curious, no?

I just finally picked up my first set of Thiels, a minty pair of CS2's.  Actually, it was a set of CS0.5's that were my first experience in this crazy hobby over 20 years ago and I never forgot it. 
I purchased these from the original owner and they're finished in black laminate, which I haven't seen very often.  They sound heavenly and I'm having a blast with them, rediscovering music.  I have them in my home office, sitting next to my VA Schonbergs that have been my favorite speaker in the house for the last year, or more.  

My my wife said I have too many toys....says the lady with 15 purses.  I might need to have her committed...

Hope I’m not going to ruffle any feathers with this question, but would like to know any recommendations folks here might have for a currently manufactured speaker in the range of $2K-$3K per pair that delivers alot of what made the legacy Thiels sound so good. I assume any such product would implement the time coherent design principles and sturdy construction of classic Thiels.  Might go somewhat higher on price range but not looking to spend twice that amount.  Could look for older Thiels, but for now am wondering if anyone else is currently building new speakers much along those lines. My fond memories of my original 2’s was their exceptional detail and clarity compared with most anything else I shopped at the time.  Thanks for any suggestions!

If I was looking for something that provided the essence of what I love about the Thiels, and was looking to get hold of something that was in current production, my starting point would be Maggies and Vandersteens.  I had Magnepan speakers in my listening space from 1984 to 1996 and loved them.  Moved onto Thiel when we needed something more practical to best co-exist with our then toddler.  I started with the Thiel CS .5, and then in 2011 moved up to the 2.4.  Much easier to work into my listening space than would be comparable Maggies.  I have  never owned Vandersteens, but in my space Vandersteens would be easier to work with.  Also, Vandersteens would be easier to work with from an amp perspective  relative to either Thiels or Maggies.  Hope this helps.

I read things on zobel networks commonly being used with thiels speakers and amps used with them can anyone explain this? As well as the alpha goertz cables people talk about.
