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!

Has anyone ever had any problems with the lighter veneer on their Thiels? Mainly referring to a cup stain or something else and then tried to get it out by light sanding etc. 
@thoft did you do anything with your 3.5 on the outsides or was it just driver replacement. I really don’t want to have to reveneer speakers if it’s a light stain, but I’m thinking a little sanding will be needed, carefully. 
I googled expansive grout and all the top results were for non-explosive demolition grout.

That can’t be right.
Well rob said if the speakers aren’t sounding or doing anything weird they’re probably fine just that they sit at 3 ohms. Only issues that exist is related to the power amplifier. I’m betting that because my thiels are 3 ohms they hang in the lower 2 ohms which my adcom gfa 5800 isn’t officially rated for.
@jhouse55 despite they heavy electrical abuse they went through with the last owners, the finish on mine were damn near flawless. Obviously minor scuff here and there but other than that, almost perfect finish. I wish I could help but I’ve never tried to get rid of fading or stains on the finish of speakers.
