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!

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!

For anyone with a fireplace especially in an audio room. 

Always chasing an improvement in soundstage size and shape but this was originally conceived to make my walk out lower level warmer. Even with the flue packed with fiber glass and the doors closed the cold air drops 3 floors where the temp falls 4 to 5 degrees. To help solve this issue I purchased a sheet of 1-inch pink Styrofoam and 1 sheet of Luan. And 2 decorative handles and some spray adhesive. I used the same cloth that covers my home-grown acoustic panels and sprayed glued the 2 panels together with the luan on the backside so the fabric could be glued and stapled to the wood. Tight snug fit, sealing the opening. The room is warmer as a result and my audio system sounds better too. The fireplace is over my right shoulder and 12 ft away on a diagonal. The center fill is now much more precise the bass has more impact and the midbass is very specific on placement. I did the same for the other 2 fireplaces with a different choice of fabric selected by my bride. More consistent air pressure in the room is probably why there is better audio performance. TomD

Thank You for reporting on the Jadis w/ your CS 3.7 loudspeakers.

 

Happy Listening!

Good Morning All,

I have some information I would like to report to the group. I asked earlier about using a rubber conditioner on the rubber surrounds and this is what Rob told me:

1) I do recommend a rubber conditioner for the surrounds to your speakers, except the coax, and they are silk. For rubber surrounds I use Protectant 303.

2) I use a solder which has a high silver content. (Alpha NRG+. SAC305).

Here is a link to Aerospace 303: 

 

Does anyone have a good amp recommendation for the Thiel CS3.5? Since it has a bass equalizer, I would like something with a tape loop function. I can purchase the Peachtreeaudio NOVA500 for $1600 and wanted to know if anyone has experience with this amp. Please let me know!
