Thiel CS3.5 vs CS3.6

Hello all
I'm still (always :) on the quest for new/better/different sound, and there is a pair of 3.5's local, somewhat...and of course I'm also considering Martin Logan Quest Z's (that thread started out as Quest Z (local) vs Kappa 9's).

So my question is, are the 3.6's that much better than the 3.5's, as the AVE price is almost double...and I see a pair of 3.6's in TX but that would add shipping...

Either way need a LOT OF POWER and VERY CLEAN sounding source gear and source material. Something warm in the system like Cardas cables would help. Both are "long in the tooth" so check on issues like component aging (Thiel customer support would help.).

Hi Johnson! Nice that you are still in the hobby! Yes I am the voice of experience when it comes to Thiels! I have owned 8 pairs over the years. I used to spend a couple years with Spendors, then own Thiels, then Proac, then Thiels.... I always liked the Thiel transparency and cojones. Several years ago I got hooked on Silverline though, and tubes.... What's your current "audio addiction" Johnson?
