Thank You for addressing dolt's query. I still have my feelers out there for an 02 model.  Excellent history lesson on the CS.5 speaker.

Happy Listening!

Folks, there are a couple of sets of CS1.5s listed on FB in MD and NY. Also a set of white CS2.4s in VA priced at $1200...

I recently picked up a set of CS2.3s in Nashville for 1/3 of what they should have sold at for the shape they are in off FB. Numbers 3625 & 3626, I'd call them more of a younger brother to my CS3.6s.

Nice catch!  Do you reside in the Nashville area?

Happy Listening!

2nd Note

any Thiel loudspeaker in White finish is very rare.

Happy Listening!

duegi - your 2.3 serial numbers place them before the upgrade at 4567 which added a bucking magnet to the back of the midrange coax. That magnet has two principal effects: 1-greatly reduces stray magnetic fields to decrease interference with a TV, cables, etc. 2- the magnetic field is more effectively focused in the motor gap. It sounds cleaner.

Rob at Coherent Source Service could tell you if and/or how to upgrade if needed or wanted.

Historical note: The CS2.3 sported the first iteration of the passively coupled coax driver which was then applied to the PCS. A few years later it wad further advanced along with advancements to the woofer which became the drivers for the CS2.4.
