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!

Good to see you again. Do you still own the CS6 loudspeaker?
What gear is in your current system?

Happy Listening!

I am a big fan of Infiniti Kappa Series speakers as well.


Happy Listening!

Brett - your point is why Jim refused to endorse bi / multi-wiring. Indeed everything can be screwed up and he firmly believed in Murphy's Law. Indeed we would abide by reason, using identical amps and speaker cable runs, and actually keep phase integrity somewhat better because intermodulation and other cable propagation artifacts would be minimized via multiple sources.

Unsound - the CS5's low impedance is restricted to the very low frequencies. It is about 2 ohms from 20 to 50 and drops to about 1.6 at 10Hz. But there is little power required down there- the low rolloff is to minimize phase shift at the deep fundamental musical foundation. John Siau (Benchmark designer) says no problem for the AHB-2 in stereo mode.
