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!

Last thing about Convolution filters and then I will stop.

I am listening to some rock music now, Robert Plant and Rainbow. I was starting to feel sleepy when I was listening. This used to happen prior to the Convolution implementation (too much sound pressure). The imaging was also off and the sound seemed to be coming from the speakers instead of the speakers disappearing. I thought these are old recording and maybe that is how they were recorded.

I must have had a brain freeze since I was under the impression that I had turned ON the Convolution. It is very easy to see on ROON current track being played. However, it turned out that I have not enabled the Convolution because I had listened to headphones the prior night. I think I was fascinated by the new MQA DAC setting in my sound path and did not notice the Convolution was missing.

I turned ON the Convolution and the pressure that was making me sleepy disappeared, the speakers also disappeared, and the imaging became great. This is some great technology. OK, no more on the Convolution stuff.

I just watched the latest HiFi Chats #27 via YouTube.
The guest is B%W. There is pretty good conversation on Loudspeaker building and Cross-over design. I thought its content may be of interest.
We have several DIY members on the Panel.

Happy Listening!
