Thiel Owners

Thank you JC for the link to Thiel Audio’s incorporation docs. To correct the record, it seems that Thiel Audio Products Company didn’t incorporate until 1985. So those early borrowings and growth were done under the auspices of Conceptions Studio. Memory has holes. Details fade, but the broad brush still paints true.

I wonder who maintains the Thiel Blog.

I was just going over the many warm remembrances of Jim Thiel on this page (which I've posted before):

Also...who are THESE people who seem to have taken over the ThielAudio domain/name?

Thank You for the answer and Thiel Audio history lesson. Very informative.

I will 2nd- The Listening Room. It was a great pleasure to meet and greet with Mr. Don Hoatson in 2012. We had several music sessions that Spring. At that time, He still spoke highly of Thiel loudspeakers. He had a great location and sound studio.

Happy Listening!

Happy Listening!

JA - Don died a few years ago. His grandson Mike who grew up around the business is carrying it on with the help of Don's wife and brother.

Prof - I think that's the same site that picked up the domain when New Thiel went bankrupt. Note there's no Thiel content on it. It is (or was) owned by a Swiss gambling consortium who harvests contacts via any which way.

Is there a Thiel Blog being maintained somewhere?

So do you mean the actual content of that ThielAudio site is "fake," as it were?

And it's just fishing for contact info?

I posted a link to the Thiel blog.  I didn't mean it was active, but simply that it is still there and not taken over (like the ThielAudio site) so I figured maybe someone still hosts/maintains it or something?
