Reading this thread is a highlight of my day. Tom, now you have made me very curious about the internal upgrades you mentioned. How many times were the CS3.6s upgraded? My CS3.6 SN #4789 and 4790 were produced 5/22/96.

Thank you mental, that's my plan.

After all this and watching the YouTube link, I am more confused. If I do the work, I think I will use the 10/3 wire that is in place already, but change the 30 amp twin breaker to a 20 amp single breaker only using one of the hot cables and cappi...

pbnaudio....the physical wire connections are not what I'm asking about. I am comfortable with that. I'm asking whether to use the 30 amp twin breaker and the 10/3 cable that is currently in place (too short to reach wall outlet) with a piggytail ...

So I will change the 30 amp twin breaker to a 20 amp twin breaker. If I install two 20 amp Porter Port outlets and use 1 hot of the Romex 10/3 to each outlet (red and black) sharing the common white wire, will that defeat the purpose of having 2 d...

It is definitely a 30 amp twin breaker with 10/3 (orange) Romex. Do I need to change it to a 20 amp breaker? Is it ok to use the 10 gauge wire with the 20 amp breaker to a 20 amp Porter Port outlet?

I'm very happy with mid level Synergistic Research Cables, both the Tesla T3 power cables and Tesla Accelerator speaker cables. I have purchased these on the preowned market for reasonable prices. Also, I might need a little electrical physics exp...

I thought about purchasing this PX02 Thiel passive XO that is made for my CS3.6 (just in case) or a CS6, but I'm so happy with my bass that I can never invision me needing a sub. Does anyone know what it would take to change this PX02 to work for ...

I can vouch ronkent's remarks. I run all my gear through a PS Audio P10 and it makes a noticeable difference. Voltage into the P10 fluctuates and voltage out is steady....it regenerates the power but does not condition it.

Corvette01,Did you sell your Les Paul Edition Thiel CS3.7s?

frozentundra,It looks like you are using Thiel SCS4Ts with a subwoofer. Have you tried the more full range Thiel speakers without a subwoofer?I came back to my Thiels after having Revel Ultima Salon2s in my system for a short while. To my ears and...

Very tough to narrow down. On my Thiel CS3.6/tubes home system I prefer to listen to albums that combine artists that I like to see live but add the magic of good studio engineering. With Tidal, it sure is easy to check out some of the previous re...

I have chosen the CS3.6 for its more sophisticated proprietary drivers and more accessible solutions.Interested in internal upgrades for my CS3.6s.Tom would like input from the larger community as he finalizes his plans. So, please respond “yea” o...

This is very encouraging. I am very interested in the upgrade kit for my CS3.6s and possibly my CS1.2s. I have a little experience in soldering, and I certainly do not want to risk either causing damage or risk degrading the sound quality. I look ...
