Thiel Cs 3.6. Outdated?

I went to a shop yesterday, bought myself a very nice Mccormack DNA 0.5 used. Anyway, the salesman had a Thiel 3.6 used for sale, the "claimed" price was $3300, here in Brazil high-end is very expensive so do not be freaked out by the price tag. I can talk the guy out to $2500, I believe, not less.

Anyway, I was very impressed with these speakers, the bass was so good... I'd never ask for more if I get these. I was wondering what is you guys take on it. Is it outdated? Are there better bang for the buck stuff out there? Will I get a comparable result with a bookshelf Dynaudio+ Rel Strata II subwoofer?

My room measures 14'X 19'X 10', which I consider small for the Thiel 3.6s. Using four 11"X 48" ASC tube traps, Absorbtion and diffusing panels as well. The room treatment brought the soundstage and imaging into focus, and tame alot of glare and brightness from reflections.

My suggestion.......small room.......small speakers!
