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!

Also, btw, the L speaker is closer to the reflective fire-place wall, so I have a thick brown velvet (same material as the curtains) cover I hang over that surface for listening.  Balances out the upper frequencies perfectly with the R speaker, where I have a velvet curtain on that side cutting down higher frequency hash from the sidewalls.

Nice pics. Feel free to post in Virtual Systems.

 

Happy Listening!

tomthiel - they sound great in bad rooms.  I put my 2 2s in a reflective living room in a townhouse.  It was a second system, not something I put effort into.  Yeah, if you stand a foot away and change elevation you can hear dramatic changes.  Other than that they're great.  Resolution is limited by the room but that was taken into account and they still sound great in low rez rooms despite the limited detail.  Compared to other brands I've owned they're so clearly better, the imperfections  are there, but completely overwhelmed by the strengths.  

jon - thanks for your perspective. I can't say I understand what the naysayers actually object to.

When Jim and You were developing Thiel Audio, was there a duration or time for experimenting with Silver cables? Interconnects (IC) or Speaker (SP)?

 

Happy Listening!
