Thiel Owners


Guys-

I just scored a sweet pair of CS 2.4SE loudspeakers. Anyone else currently or previously owned this model?
Owners of the CS 2.4 or CS 2.7 are free to chime in as well. Thiel are excellent w/ both tubed or solid-state gear!

Keep me posted & Happy Listening!

Each polarity leg of an Iconoclast speaker cable is composed of twenty-four 24 AWG conductors. These conductors are twinned into Teflon®-insulated "bonded pairs," akin to those you may be accustomed to seeing in Belden's data cable products. These twelve bonded pairs are then braided in a basket-weave configuration and flattened to a rectangular profile. The two polarity legs are then laid back to back, and a nylon braid (red/black for ETP, blue/black or OFE or SPTPC) and FEP outer sheath complete the cable.

If you look up Iconoclast you can read the 61 pages of design theory , fascinating and educational . 

The updated quad star design for RCA  and Balanced  interconnects sounds ( no pun intended ) very intriguing . 

 

Rob - thanks so much for posting Iconoclast. Lovely Sunday read. I highly recommend anyone interested in what’s going on in cable read these papers. No worries for those less mathematically inclined; all the concept engineering is clear without the equations which can serve as illustrations to non-engineers. I’ll be ordering some to compare and contrast.

@everybody wanting to upgrade their 2.4 to 2.4SE..

(And I don't want to put Rob Gillum out if a job here.. ;-) )

I've contacted Clarity Cap and they are only willing to make the 14 and 28 uF caps of their newest purity range (PUR) if I buy a minimum of 25 pieces..

26 pieces would allow for 13 2.4's to be upgraded.. so I need twelve of you guys out there willing to upgrade with the Clarity Cap.. 

PM me if you want this Upgrade..
