Wired4Sound STP 2 preamplifier vs Coda X7 preamplifier

The system I have is limited by the small room, but I made it work to some degree of success. I need to move to a bigger house. The Thiel CS3.7 is an oldtime fav of mine, and I am glad I finally got it. I should have gotten it years ago, but I listened to people say you need a very large space for them. I know now that there are ways to make any speaker work in a small space.

I bought my CS3.7's used last November and had to replace the 2 COAX drivers with new ones. The woofers were replaced by the previous guy. I had to fix a hole in the COAX fastener to the unit (for vacuum seal). Do some soldering on the crossover. Those were all for screwups by the previous owner. I screwed up the finish due to a mistake on my part and decided to just paint the thing black. The speaker is now in almost new condition except the funky paint job. Either the speaker dies first, or I do before it is replaced in the office.

Of course these speakers will sound much better in a bigger space. I'm glad you were able to arrange them and I hope that you both will last for a very long time. In fact, I had to do a similar job with my CS6s which I also bought used.  I was  lucky that at that time Thiel was not yet dead, and that  a very nice guy from there called Ron was able to rebuild the coaxis very well. By the way, mid-range of CS 3.7 is wonderful and low frequencies of CS6 are unrepeatable.

@audiotroy has the 07x been out a long time? I coudve sworn 07x came out a few yrs ago but i saw a guy trying to sell his and he wrote it was 5/6yrs old. Not sure if Coda updated it and kept the same name or this guy just wrote a typo in the description. 

I think there are a few different generations. Coda said that they deliver within 3 weeks after the purchase - apparently they still produce it. I was looking for a demo or used one, but in fact have no idea if these pres are indeed better than what I use now (of about half of the price of Coda).
