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!

Thank You Tom

There is no need to defend Thiel , I purchased these speakers based on the extremely positive reviews and the overwhelming enthusiastic support from individual owners .  

I can say that when New Thiel was bankrupt and selling off stock that they put 9 CS2.7 pairs for sale on e-Bay , along with 6 or 9 CS1.7's  and the one I wish I could have afforded a CS3.7 that I was told that they had it as a museum piece . Based on my experience I tend to believe that the speakers sold on e-Bay were probably thrown together from parts laying around by an non-technician since one of the resistors was the totally wrong value.  I got a bargain , the only way I could have afforded a new pair of Thiel speakers ( even with all the issues I discovered )  Luckily I was able to correct and still at the same time upgrade for a lot less than even the price used speakers at that time but unfortunately there are a few pairs out there that might not live up to Thiel standards .

 

Rob,

 

When you are done your upgrades you will have one of the best psir of CS 2.7 out there. 

You and Tom have been very helpful and motivasted me to tear apart my CS 2.7 and push their true potential. 

Thanks

Until you finish your upgrade project , then you'll have the best bar none .

I hope it looks as good as improvedsounds does  .

Good to see you again. Stay tuned until one of the Panel DIY experts chimes in to address your query. 26 years is a nice run.

 

Happy Listening!

since the one tweeter is not working and Rob thinking that it could be a lead wire 

you could try to re-solder the wire connection where the speaker cable attaches .
