Thiel CS6

When you get the spikes on, be sure to level them carefully so as to ensure that the sides are parallel to one another and that they don't rock in any dimension. Obvious perhaps but you will find that mm adjustments matter with these babies. When all is well and dialed in, they will sonically disappear and the music will float in room disembodied from them.

Hi Steve, The Eggleston Speakers was easier to do because of the size. But they do weight 170 lbs each too. I will have someone for sure helping me. Thanks again.

I would rate the Thiel's on a 1 to 10 scale?

Very close to a 9. Sure glad that I found these gems.

What I have found as someone who has been writing and Composing music with Ray Ellis and Marc Ellis his son, is that these speakers are like Vandersteen 5A'S with much more detail on top end, but less just( a little less bass) on the lower freq..So Getting two subwoofers will give you what the recording REALLY SOUNDS LIKE. Yep, In a Audiophile Recording.If you're reading this I see why Mr. Thiel loved these great speakers that you don't have to ROB A BANK TO HAVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And If you want to come over to my my house and bring your favorite RECORDING I'll show you!!!!!!The truth is in the pudding!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi Alan,
Glad you are having success with your CS 6s. You are absolutely correct about not having to break the bank! Jim Thiel knew what he was doing and apparently the CS 6 was one of his favorites. Gary Dayton showed me a pair when I was at the factory last, which belonged to Jim as his primary home speakers until his death. Enjoy the Thiels! I purchased a pair of CS 1.6s in birdseye maple a couple weeks ago for my new little room and absolutely love them.
