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!

The four binding posts are made of copper. I replaced the plastic plates with aluminum plates and fixed them with neoprene gaskets. I respected and kept the graphics

You are in good company here as there are several DIY members on the Panel. Keep me posted as you massage this loudspeaker back into your room/system. Happy Listening!

I have Aurender N10 > DAC3B > LA4 > AHB2 x2 > 3.7. I've posted several times here about how glorious this sounds. I tried some upper-end Morrow speaker cables a while back. Frankly, and not to detract from Morrow's fine work, they didn't add much to the perceived sound quality when using all stock Benchmark wire.
