Thiel Acquired by Private Equity Firm

Would it not be a good idea to find someone that can build a xover that is of good quality and the parts count is say, less than 5 pieces. That may help out with the ultra hot/unlistenable upper end of female vocals.And with less parts count it would help with the sensitivity. Just a suggestion.

Or maybe they have chosen to voice their speakers in an unnatual way for the audiophile and not for musical enjoyment. They are not alone in that sound. It the same with Avalon and others.

I hope Thiel can make some speakers in China so I can afford them.

I just don't see it that way Harley, no box speaker I have heard allows you to see into the recording like Thiels. To each his own....plenty of brands out there!

Last Tuesday morning I received a call letting me know my new amp should be in within 4 to 5 days. At lunchtime, I was listening to some music and discovered that I had blown a tweeter in my 3.6's. I called Thiel and they had me overnight it to them. They watched out for it's arrival and by Saturday, I had the repaired tweeter back. Outside of shipping, there were no charges because it was within a year of it happening before. I explained that I believed it was not their fault and possibly the result of listening to Pink Floyd's, The Wall too loud and I was willing to pay. They would not take payment. I'm not at all concerned with the future of their customer service. If this is any indication, I expect good things to come.

Kleinman,

I have also had great experience with thiels customer support.

I love the think sound and hope they bring out some new speakers.
