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!

Thanks for the tip. I researched High Performance Stereo in FL around the time they started advertising these two pairs. The online feedback was not particularly confidence-inspiring: it painted a picture of a business where a knowledgeable audiophile would be comfortable doing business in person, but online buyers reported horror stories that sadly sounded all too credible. 

PayPal protects online purchases to some extent, but may require goods to be shipped to a third party after settlement, at buyer's expense. That would be an issue :)

I live in the Pacific Northwest btw.

Keep me posted on your purchase decision. OTOH, there are a few great Audio shops in the PNW where a sweet pair of Thiel loudspeakers could show up.

 

Happy Listening!

Here’s one of my dream tweaks for my 2.7s

replace the front baffle, Which I think is MDF,

With a thicker constrained layer damped aluminum

Baffle.  
 

Also, I’d like to hear my Thiels with the grills off, However

I am allergic to the look of drivers in general, And as neato

as the Thiel drivers are, I’d find them very distracting.

So in my dreams, Rob Gillum comes up with a way

To make the drivers black - Some sort of spray coating?

So that The drivers blend in with the baffle.
