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!

Awhile back there was discussions about adding a resistor in series with both the tweeter and mid-range speakers on the 2.7 coax speaker .  

I was communicating with Rob and he suggested using a 2.5 ohm resistor and had heard that 2.7 ohm sounded good , another Thiel owner said he used a 3 ohm resistor and like the sound .

I listened for weeks and then took them out and my opinion is without the resistors in sounds better. or even a lot better .  While with them there were songs songs and a few early 60's the benefited from the damping of the higher frequencies but when listening to all music it sounded more 2 D or a flatter and narrower sound stage .  

I curious what using a lower value resistor would sound like .
