Thiel cs2.4 upgrade to cs 2.4 se


I'm currently using thiel cs2.4. Any master can advise on how to upgrade to cs2.4se by changing its capacity? May i know the value and specs of the capacitors? What is the sound difference between cs2.4 vs dc2.4se? Tq

Do you have a list of all components you put in your Thiel 2.4?

I'm going for an upgrade and was planning on Jantzen just like you with also flat coils.. you seem to be pleased with your setup..

Greetings,

I'm looking at coils at the moment and was wondering..

If I want a coil with 0,10 mH, I have the coice (Mundorf) between CFC 14, 16, 18 etc. 

These all habe same value mH, but different Ohm-values.. In the end I need to come to 30-31 Ohms on the mid/tweeter of the 2.4.. how much would the wrong coil distort.. Also, I don´t really know if the CFC stands for the same as AWG/ gauge... lower AWG means thicker copper strand, higher CFC means bigger coil.. (maybe ill get in touch with mundorf in germany... )

 

cheers

I hope nobody minds me posting all these messages without waiting for a response...

I'm most probably going to do the mid and high section first, maybe also the bass..

If I combine capacitors, which can't really be avoided, would it matter much (and if yes, in what way) if I combine a 10 and a 3,9 uF to make (almost) 14 uF our of I combine a 13 and a1 uF?

I'm looking at the Jantzen amber or alumen.. the amber is pretty expensive.. maybe buy two of these in 1 uF and a 3.9uF 600V Miflex KPAL-01 Aluminium Foil Paper / Polypropylene in Oil Capacitor or audyn true copper also both a very good rating, not so expensive.. 

Our would you say it would be better to keep these small capacitors from the same brand? As I most probably will have the larger ones either Jantzen or Mundorf.. 

It's like standing in front of the milk cartons.. thousands of choices, which don't make it any easier 😉

My CS2.4 Mid/High xover use Claritycap CSA/ESA and Audiocap PPT Theta for bypass. The two 100uf non-polarized electrolytic replaced with Solen 200uF polypropylene capacitor. Resistors are Mills non-inductive wire wound, Coils are Jantzen.

That looks nice..

I've sent an email to Clarity Cap and Miflex to ask if they would do A14 and 28 uF cap.. 

I've also planned mills resistances and Jantzen coils.. it's just getting the call values right in a single cap what I'm aiming for.. 

If they do so these caps, I'll let everybody know👍🏼
