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!

@tomthiel, Perhaps I’m mistaken, but I seem to recall Bryston’s cubed series of amps coming out years later than the 3.7’s?
Unsound  & yyz- thanks for the catch. Seems I am confusing my stories. The 'cubed' feedback stands as exceedingly complimentary; but I don't remember from what source.

I'd like to throw my 2 cents in , not about amps because of the cost 
but about room acoustics .
For a very reasonable price you could try replacing the 4 inch thick
panels you are using for the side reflection with 1 or 2 inch thick ones ,
on the acoustimac site the give the graphs for each of thier thicknesses .
You can see how you can absorb higher frequency reflections while allowing the lower ones thru , this might help with your lack of bass .

Just a thought

@vair68robert Thanks for  your input. I am going to stick with the GIK panels for now because I am low on funds and also these panels made my room sound great with the KEF LS50s. Prior to the panels the sound was awful. I understand the CS3.7 is a different beast but I am getting close to the sound I want.

I am taking the the suggestion of unsound and moved my speaker back 1 foot from the back wall. This is the closet I have had any speaker in this room. Still trying to figure out if I like that positioning. Though with DRC it will not matter.

I am playing Santana's Caranvanserai SACD and it sounds pretty good. Thought last night when I played it on my headphones I was wowed and thought I need to hear this again on the CS3.7 in the morning. It is not as great on the speakers and I think it is not the room this time, Ii is the amp. This is an album where some power is required out of the amp. There is a lot of percussion on this album.

I got feedback from the DRC engineer this morning after I sent him my 2 preliminary measurement files. He plotted the measurement on a graph and the lines were very close from the 2 different days. The measurement with the desk in the room actually had a little better base. Though I liked the sound without the desk.  I will be sending more measurements today to get him going on the Convolution file generation for my room.
