Thiel Owners

naimfan:corrected.

Naimfan - you can use double wires (star quad, etc.) and connect both runs to the same terminals. 4' from wall to tweeter is a good distance if you can listen at least 8' away from the speakers.

@tomthiel - 

Thank you - we'll try that.  I grew up a Linnie, so prefer to have a single pair of speakers in a room.  The prior owner is sending me the pins so I can experiment with and without them.  Just a brief listen was positive - airy and relaxed sounding (in the best sense of relaxed).  

I'd try one of the biwire sets I have, but they are bananas all the way around.  

Wow, that's enough praise for the cs 2.2 to make me want a pair! 

thieliste  look forward to hearing what you are building,  I know you do a ton of homework and have really expensive taste!
I know this isn't everyone's favorite topic. Wiring, I am building an all Thiel home theater. I ordered a big spool of audioquest in the wall two wire 12 gauge it wasn't cheap but didn't break the bank was using just for atmos power point, a pair of high points and as the group decide the terrible 1.7 for rears, all other speaker will have much better wires. They sent me a role of 4 wire 14 gauge and supposedly better quality copper or what ever. Am i better off using two wires to each terminal or just use the one? They told me because of shipping costs i could have it at no charge. suggestions?"

Thanks,

Dan.

Dan - use the 14-4. There is some disagreement around best configuration for star quad. Conventional configuration is opposites as plus and other opposites as minus. Also try adjacents as plus and other adjacents as minus. Please report back what you hear.

I hope you jest re 1.7s. Just reporting back-story.
