Thiel Owners

Tom Thiel, thanks for the reply. I wish I could locally find a stock pair the way they were intended to be… My gut was telling me to pass on these as they could be less than a shadow of what they were intended to be but I’ve been watching this particular pair for several months. Thanks again for the reply. Andrew

jazzman7,

The review you referenced with the CS2.4SE I own that very pair used for that review.

There were to few reviews pertaining to Thiel speakers. 

Getting a very good condition pair and performing some of the upgrades mentioned by Tom would allow them to compete with modern spekers costing you five times or more your purchase price for the Thiels. 

duramax747 - good score!

My forensic observation reveals that crossover production for various models was taken to China/FST and that early FST crossovers had weaknesses and improved over time. However, it seems that FST XOs used MPT/polyester caps where Thiel had always used (superior) MPP/polypropylene.

Additionally, we know that Jim personally checked, measured and approved review samples. So, your pair is what a hot-rodder would call 'blue printed' - exactly as intended.

Guys any Thiel owners on the panel using an Audia Flight FLS10 integrated amp ?

I've been told it's a great match.

Member stanwal (RIP) endorsed Audia Flight with Thiel Audio speakers.

Choose the most powerful Model for best outcome.

Happy Listening!
