Calling Thiel owners please...


Anyone using spikes other than the ones supplied? I broke one and have substituted one from another speaker that works fine - but was wondering. Thanks

I have been using Polycrystals on my cs-6's and have been very happy other than the fact that the cs'6s are so heavy and fine tuning them with the spikes on are nearly impossible as a matter of fact the other day I bought some of those new widgets that you see on tv for moving heavy items on carpet and darned if they didnt help of course the spike put a pretty good size dent in the thing but the slid on carpet as advertised . And yes call the folks at Thiel the have great customer service Shari is the tops
The steel spikes sing a negative song but are better than no spikes..Not all Thiels accept the same shaft diameter.. The newer Thiels require a threaded shaft the older models are a smooth pressure fit..The Audiopoints will collect and dissipate to ground more cabinet resonance than any other similar device. The ultimate collector and dissipator will be the appropriate Sistrum platform. Please keep in mind the heaviest most dense speaker cabinets often need the most help in releaving their stored resonances. More mass more stored energy, more help required..Tom
Try Audio Points. They have a version made for Thiels. I have had great success with other speakers.
I have had very good results substituting Sound Anchor stands for the spikes. A little over the top maybe. But the improvement is worth the $$$.
Thanks everybody - I ordered some audiopoints today for my 3.6's and will post results versus standard Thiel spikes.
