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!

As has been discussed here many moons ago, I think that crossing a subwoofer over at the 40 Hz setting would be more advantageous.

Yes, of course. That circuitry is already extant in the eq. There is only 6dB of boost at 40Hz vs 12dB @ 20Hz. Tomorrow I'll run today's trials at 40Hz vs straight wire.

It seemed to me that the weakness of the 3.5’s might be due to the paper surrounds of the midrange drivers. The woofers seemed sturdy enough.

Thanks to those who posted the earlier advice on the amp. I took a chance on the used Nova 300 and hopefully it’ll work out well.

I had another question if anyone has any experience with basic speaker repairs. The surround on the midrange driver on my 2.4 appears to be coming loose from the cone, and causes an awful rattling sound at certain frequencies, esp acoustic songs.

I was hoping to glue it back on with some sort of rubber cement or flexible adhesive like E6000. Any advice on what to use and how? Image of driver:

Excellent! keep me posted as you massage the Nova 300 into your room/system.

Stay tuned until 1 of the Panel members chimes in about repairing Midrange surround.

 

Happy Listening!
