It depends on what you are after and what your preferences are... For me, yes, its is an upgrade, BUT I would put a high current, smooth & detailed amp on them to make them sing. The Thiel are a fairly consistent 4 ohm load and 86db sensitivity. They need power. I haven't seen curves on the Heresy II, but they are rated at 8 ohm & 99db sensitivity. So, no matter what the Heresy's should be very quick, dynamic speakers. Once you have excellent dynamics, it is hard to go back.... But the Thiels set up properly for me with a High Current amplifier will sound more like music than the Klipsch. On the other hand, with the right tubed amp, the Klipsch do what they do, extremely well. So, I am saying alot depends on your taste and the associated equipment.
Thiel CS 2.2 Speakers... What you all think?
So I'm putting together a system and there are some
Thiel CS 2.2 speakers in mint condition for $800 in my area. What do you all think of the speakers and the price? I really appreciate the feedback and any considerations I may have for them. I have an Outlaw 5 channel amp and a Marantz pre-amp. Currently running some Klipsch Heresy II speakers.
Would these be a great upgrade? TY to the community for helping me.
