Thiel Owners

Hi, just purchased a pair of Thiel Cs1.5. Great sounding pair of speakers in my tiny room of 2.3m by 2.3m with a small rectangle extra space like 1 m by 1.5 m, driven by Schiit Aegirs. Seems that the bass is a little light weight when compared to playing in my living room with a Cambridge audio cxa81. When I am near the speakers, I can hear the bass but at the listening position the bass is much less.

A few suspects.

1. Amplifier too low powered

2. Phase cancellation

3. Speakers placed too away from the wall. Now is making use of the small spaced place about 1m out from the rear wall.

4. Not run in speaker cables and interconnect. Run in for 30hours so far.

Any advise much appreciated.

Thanks

Jon

Happy Friday! All

Welcome! Good to see you here today. Stay tuned until one of the Panel members chimes in to address your query. We have a few fans/owners of the CS 1.5 speaker. I look forward in reading more about your Musical tastes and system.

Happy Listening!

@gryphon1972 I’ve owned the 1.5s for many years and gave them to my brother when i purchased 3.7s back in 2014.

Your room is definitely too small you should use them in your living room.

My bro is driving them with a Classe CAP-151 integrated, really great combo and plenty of smooth power.

Thanks Jafant.

Thanks Thieliste. I know I should be playing in the living room. But they sounded great in my small room besides the bass which seems to be lightweight. So I wanted to try. 😅
