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!

trevor - something is wrong. Please read the Stereophile reviews of the 3.6 and PCS to get a feel for the particulars of the bass. Then let's wade into why yours aren't performing properly. My limited experience with the 3.6 does not include bass shyness.

I mean they’ should be getting plenty of power with my classe. I have read the reviews and I’m getting opposite results from the pcs and 3.6

Maybe you should get updated crossovers and upgraded drivers over here 😉

It is uncommon to hear that 3.6 is bass shy. At the same time, I do not doubt Classe, however, will not rule it out entirely.

 

This is what I would do if I encounter the same situation - first, check the physical conditions of every driver, woofers, and the surrounding rubber. Look out for some clues of deterioration or cracks. Next, monitor and observe the behaviour of the woofers, especially with a bassy music track. Look out for driver excursions. It should look tight and fast, with minimal or zero "lag". If all is looking just fine as "how it should be", next pair the 3.6 with another power amplifier, and again continue to monitor and observe the behaviour of the woofers.
