Thiel Owners

Rob - no. My observation was general across the few speakers I have seen. NO gasket on the 2.7 fits Thiel’s strategy perfectly. It’s likely the paint is enough to seal the air. BTW are your driver screws magnetic?

Thanks Tom

Yes they were , I replaced the woofer and radiator with brass and the coaxial with reinforced nylon , as well as the crossover boards with brass because they too were magnetic . Only the screws holding the speaker terminals were non-magnetic.

I didn't think about it until unsound wrote about it .

Thank You -for your hard work on XO designs and solutions as well.

Happy Listening!

Thank You jafant 

It's been a long journey with trails and errors of trying to use different damping materials , wiring gauge size and configuration and scariest of all stripping the threaded inserts out of the MDF ( don't use a drill ) . But upgrading the components on the XO boards has been a great success .  While I am waiting for Clarity to release their 630v Purity caps to finish the upgrades I have started to think about moving the boards out of the cabinet .

Hi all,
quick question regarding speaker cables: I could get some used HMS Gran Finale Jubilee for a decent price. They are about 10 years old.
Has anyone experience combining these with Thiel cs3.7? I was actually looking for Straight Wire, as they were recommended here before ...
Amplification is Bryston BP25/Bryston SST2 at the moment.
Any thoughts welcome! Thank you!
