Thiel CS6 Compared with Eggleston Andra 1

Pops, I was doing research and Thiel can only rebuild mine for $550.00 Alan

Alan, a few years ago I had Thiel rebuild/repair the bass drivers of my CS6's. Driver removal was easy and reinstallation was also easy but required a helping hand. The folks at Thiel were easy to deal with and I came away a very happy camper.

Thanks for getting back to me regarding my woofer that needs to be rebuilt. Thiel has the parts on order. I'm looking at around three weeks. Regarding the woofer removal. Are the leads that short to unsolder them? I was going to get a chair and get something close to the height in front of the speaker very carefully. But if the wires are too short, I guess I will have someone hold it while I do the unsoldering. Can you give me the heads up on this?

Hi Vegasears. I forgot to tell you that Thiel has new owners.

Alan, that is exactly the case when I replaced the woofer on one of my Eggleston's. The wire to the woofer was VERY short. It just barely protruded out of the speaker cabinet. My wife had to hold the woofer and it was very cumbersome for me to desolder and solder but I got it done.

I am sorry I do not know of any available CS6 woofers - what a bummer Thiel has no inventory for classic models.
