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!

Good to see you here my fellow AYRE fan and owner. Yes! to my ears, from models 3A down, Vandy and Thiel are very close in presentation and sound.

(I have not spent time with model 5A. Nor did I like the Treo but did enjoy the Kento)

Thiel loudspeakers have a remarkable treble section. This factor is easily confused as being "bright or"hot" on the top end. Careful cable and gear selection is a must.

Happy Listening!

Thanks for chiming in so far! Good to hear that there's at least one original owner whose drivers look the same.

My Thiel 2.4s are powered by monoblocks from a local manufacturer called JK Acoustics. Their power rating is 105 watt into 4 ohm, but I figured they might suffice because of their dampening factor of 800 at 8 ohm. Speaker cables are Kimber 8TC, interconnects are Kimber PBJs. 

I mostly stream, using a Schiit Yggdrasil dac and a pi2aes 2.0 streamer connected by an Audioquest carbon aes/ebu cable.

Thank You for the follow up and citing your System. I also checked my CS 2.4SE speakers and see no residue, at all.

 

Happy Listening!
