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!

@vair68robert  That is something to consider since I already have a speaker repair tech available to help me now. 

1) I have to fix the broken thread on the LEFT speaker frame for one of the screws. I have  repair kit being shipped for that. Hopefully I do not mess up that repair.

2) I have to fix the SPL divergence issue between the 2 COAX drivers. I hope it is not a crossover issue and a simple COAX driver replacement, to the 2012 spec'd COAX,  does the job.

3) I want to sand an lacquer the wood since it has some ugly sheen on certain angles. That was a prior DIY job not from the factory.

4) Setup the outriggers that arrived yesterday, though I will do that last.

5) Maybe add this bi-wire ability

Fun times and all I wanted to do was buy a speaker.
"The vertical bi-amp will not work with the Thiel CS3.7 since it only has 1 set of speaker inputs."
Check out bettlemania's system on the virtual systems ,
he bi-wired his 2.4's .
Yes it's very easy to do, "if" the owner or a friend has a little knowledge.
Once again do not bridge into these CS3.7's, you'll gain loudness at the expense of sound quality and reliability.
This is stretching it, but bridging turns what was a good quality amp into a more powerfull P.A. amp. 

Cheers George

I find all the handwringing about whether a well designed solid state amp will drive the 3.7s surprising, given, as I've said, they were driven with aplomb, as loud as I could stand, by 140W of tubes (and even with a 14W integrated Eico amp).

But...we audiophiles gonna audiophile :-)
