Upgrading from Thiel CS3.6 to Avalon

Hi, Hell yeah, I believe up grading to eanything Avalon speakers is good, all thiels are bright sounding speakers!, the only way to balance a great sound from them is to use a dark sounding well balanced speaker cable, if you use a cable that is revealing and well balance like most do on other speakers the cable will reveal the true nature of the thiel, do not get me wrong here, thiels are excellent speakers, you just need to know how to use them, most people would blame thier speaker cable, thats not it, I have run alot of test over the years with these great thiel speakers, you also have to do careful everything else matching with the thiels, once you get the set up you like, well the thiels sing like an angel!, The Avalons on the other hand are not difficult when it comes to matching cables and etc..., they will sing too!

I upgraded from Thiel 3.6 to Ascent ii then to eidolons then to diamond.
Didn't find the 3.6 bright at all. The 3.5 were crazy bright. 3.6s undrivable by anything due to that stupid radiator.
Get ready to switch to some real warm sounding front end.

A better upgrade would be a Thiel CS2.7 or CS3.7 loudspeaker.

you need a sub-woofer for cs2.7 or cs3.7, great speakers!, no bottom ommph!

17x13x8. I recommend
Opus ceramique and add subwoofer.
I have eidolons and diamonds in my small room
A headache to deal with room dampening.
