| Thiel Owners I suspect Rob Gillum has rebuilt them as CS1.5’s spider cages are prone to separating from the woofers over time. | |
| Thiel Owners @tomthiel - Very exciting news! Have a pair of CS3’s in need of tweeters and midranges. Look forward to applying your replacements and other improvements you have been working on! Like many others on this forum big fan of Thiel’s and own many pa... | |
| Thiel Owners @agdrago Correct, the CS2 2 and CS3.6 use the same tweeter. | |
| Thiel Owners @agdrago Thiel used FerroTech APG L17 ferrofluid. I ordered direct from FerroTec. I don't know exact measurements, but I fill tweeter roughly 2/3rds of the way. Then insert voice coil in and remove to ensure voice coils have full coverage of flu... | |
| Thiel Owners @ekohn00 SCS4 uses the same tweeter as the 2.7’s and would be a great match. MCS1 would be another option to look at. MCS1 is quite large and has two woofers single midrange and tweeter. I think this one would make more of a notable change for ... | |
| Thiel Owners Where are they located? | |
| Thiel Owners @dmanzi0219 Remove the screws on the outer edge of the amplifier plate to remove from the rear. | |

| Thiel Owners silvanik- Congrats on your purchase, going to be a long two weeks! When I was looking for a pair to replace my 3.5’s the 3.7’s and 7.2’s were both at the top of my list. Came across a pair of 3.7’s first that were nearby. I absolutely love the 3... | |
| Thiel Owners tomthiel - I finished up my turntable stand and am so happy with the results. I used Sherwin Williams SHER-WOOD Precat Lacquer over shellac just as you suggested. I just love the finish and the depth it gives to the Birdseye Maple, such beautifu... | |
| Thiel Owners tomthiel Thank-you for taking the time to write this up. You are a wealth of knowledge on many subjects. Thanks for being such a helpful resource to us all. My take away is let the natural beauty of the wood standout and provide a finish that... | |
| Thiel Owners Understand and so much appreciated Tom! | |
| Thiel Owners vair68robert Thanks for the link, upgrading these has always been on my mind. Yes, I do have the vacuum hold down. It’s a Star III table. I’ve just installed new springs and finishing up the stand. On the lookout for a decent phono preamp, curre... | |
| Thiel Owners Thank-you jafant! Owner of 3.5's which hooked me on Thiel. Have since acquired an SCS3 and a pair of SCS4T's for home theater use. Came across a pair 3.7's that I couldn't pass up, there went my amplifier upgrade budget :). Also running a pair of... | |
