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!

@jafant yes, still running Cardas Golden Reference which have been out of production for years now. Bi-wired! That was my final step along with upgrading to Cardas CPB binding posts. That really snapped everything into a beautiful focus, icing on the cake of many fruitful upgrades. OTOH, I also have a Cardas Golden powercord to my amp, and that might be the least cost effective tweak I’ve done.

@tomthiel Glad to know you’re still working on the upgrades and making them more cost effective. I never bothered to total my parts cost other than I know it was well above $1000 even with some of the discounts you were able to provide on some items. But it was money well spent. I’m unaware of any speaker less than $10k that can touch these. I think I would need to go to at least a Vandy Quatro ($15k last I looked) to be this happy.
 

I have zero regrets and was happy to replace the entirety of my crossovers for reasons you are aware of. Plus, I now have only film caps and should not need to ever re-cap the boards :)

Good to see you here again. Did you swap out the CS 3.7 speaker for a CS 2.7?

 

Happy Listening!
