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!

Unsound, before you dismiss the multiamp option for the cs5i, I would be surprised if the impedance of each woofer would be lower then 3 ohm. In parallel the impedance of 3 woofers of course drops to the low level but if each woofer is powered separately, the need for high current amps disappear. The specs on the hypex ncore 252mp are easily available and have been confirmed by independent measurements. These opinions about multi amp vs Krell could be empirically tested if the goal is to improve the sound quality of the cs5i.

Very nice! Quite a speaker collection. Always good to see a fellow 2.4SE owner. What are the Serial Numbers (S/N) ?

Equally nice is to read about Disc spinners -Wadia and Esoteric.
Which models? There is no such thing as being "behind". Certain vintage gear still stands up very well in 2021.
I am a disc-spinner Owner for life !

Happy Listening!
2nd Note;

a pair of CS 2.7 loudspeakers  in Piano White are very rare. Nice score!

Happy Listening!

I'll check the CS 2.4SE for numbers. I'm assuming your curiosity is the early numbers were made here in US and later runs were sourced elsewhere?
The white CS 2.7 in piano white are by far my favorite in terms of aesthetics. They are beautiful.
So much so I bought brand new drivers and grill screens for my CS6 from Rob as I'm planning on breaking the speaker down and sand cabinets.

Once sanded, including the baffles, I'll have the cabinets painted a Lamborghini Reventon Grey and baffles done in matte black.

I'm in professional motorsports so getting automotive paint and highly skilled professionals to do the work is pick of the litter. 

Send me your email and Ill send photos of the piano white CS2.7 if you'd like.
