Thiel Owners

2nd Note

The CS 3.7 loudspeaker does indeed require a large room to breathe and open in presentation and sound.

Happy Listening!

thieliste,

I agree that Cardas cables are a great match for Thiel speakers. I have tried out a lot of interconnects over the past year, but keep returning to Cardas Clear Reflection XLRs for my Thiel 2.2s. These ICs are so smooth and rich sounding while maintaining the imaging and transparency that Cardas cables in the Clear series are known for. If you haven't seen it already, there is a long, glowing review of the CR cables on the Steve Huff Photo website from August.

I've never heard the Clear Beyond cables, and I'd expect them to be great, but the CR cables are still the favorite cables of Angela Cardas, who can use any cables she wants in the Cardas line.

@sdl4  Thanks i red the Steve Huff review, very interesting.

Seems that the CR are the more engaging and organic sounding Cardas cables of the lineup.

Would be interesting to make a shootout between the CR and the Clear Beyond.

thieliste,

I'd love to see a shootout between Cardas CR and CB cables! There's a significant price difference between those cables, and I'm sure there would be some interesting sound differences as well.

A Cable shoot-out is certainly welcomed here.

Happy Listening!
