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!

Thank You for the information. Ted appears to be a stand-up guy. 
I admire him for not junk sourcing his wares to china, while, charging a premium for cables/cords. Other U.S. manufacturers are doing the same.

Happy Listening!

Yes! those older AQ cables/cords are still relevant in 2021. 
I do not know when this company started sourcing to china?
Odd, because the Niagara conditioner is made here in the U.S.A.
(according to Garth Powell).

Happy Listening!

I am looking forward to those Thiel upgrades!
I hope you are ready for Spring there in New England.

Happy Listening!
tomthiel et al,

What are your thoughts on this paper from Townshend Audio about cable technology. Would seem to fly in the face of everything we - or at least I - know or believe about speaker level cable:

Then, on a separate topic... going back a few pages (I don’t get here as often as I’d like), you were commenting on the development of “coherent source” in various Thiel models over the years. During your discussion, you referred to second order crossovers being used in the SCS series. Would that include our beloved Powerpoints? I’m crushed! Although I can’t argue with the results.

Thank You for the link and post regarding Townsend Audio. Impressive abstract and article. I found the information highly interesting. Pretty cool to fathom that cabling was researched and tested way back in the 1970's.
No matter how you guys feel about this White Paper, always, trust your ears.

Happy Listening!
