i am much in agreement with the recent posts by @holmz and @unsound
it was some 20 years ago, but my one very notable point of recall on the thiel 1.5’s was their lack of height... short speaker that while spacious and clear and fairly well balanced, seemed to have the soundstage rather low (waist height), no doubt due to their own rather diminutive stature - i remember at that time living in seattle, i traded my regular loveseat sofa for a low beanbag to ’get down’ to hear the sound properly hahaha
