New Thiel Speakers - Post Jim Thiel Era

Being concerned myself as I just bought new 2.7's which are for sale now here to buy the 3.7's, I sent an email to Thiel and just received (this is only part of a much longer conversation) this today concerning my thoughts on the Jim Thiel coax driver going away. I think they will still build the 1, 2 & 3.7's and the new line will be "in addition" to that line as long as there is demand for the CS line.
They are amazing speakers and I can't imagine them no longer being made. I only hope I can get a pair of 3.7's soon just incase! :o)

Below is just a small part from Tim DeYoung at Thiel. It's not much, but make of it what you will.

As for the coaxes, hopefully not. Our new lead designer actually really loves the coax that is in the CS2.7 and CS3.7

Yes, that may be true, but thank God also for all the Thiels that are here now and will be for many many years. Best speakers I have owned. If I am lucky enough to get a pair of 3.7's I will carry them to the grave so it really does not matter to me after that. If not, I am happy to have my 2.7's Thiel is a speaker I can own for 20-30 years.

I think they & we will be alright. This is from Thiel yesterday.

Dear Bob,

Sounds great, I wish you luck in getting your system exactly how you want!

We will still be making the CS line for as long as there is demand, so probably for quite some time, and of course we will be able to service them indefinitely.

Have a great day.

Sincerely,

Tim DeYoung | Technical Support

I also had very nice & prompt replies recently concerning questions between my 2.7's I own now & 3.7's I was thinking about purchasing. I received very long & detailed answers to my questions. Very satisfied with my customer service provided by Thiel.

Not sure where their new adventure will take them, but I will remain a happy Thiel customer for a very long time. I hope they can mix their newest efforts with the time tested results of the great Jim Thiel.
