Thiel CS3.7 repair
I am thinking of aquiring a pair of Thiel CS3.7 used speakers from a local seller. I live about 1 hour from Nashville where Thiel used to be. My question is: is Thiel still in business; and if I need some repair job to be done with my speakers, will Thiel as a company be able to do it?
The rest of my system is a McCormack DNA2-Deluxe amp (recently refreshed) and ARC Ref5 preamp.

I bought a used pair of CS3.7 and it turned out that it was massively messed up. I was able to rebuild everything with the remote help of Rob at Coherent Source Service – Specializing in repair and restoration of THIEL Loudspeakers He is in KY. I was able to confirm that the end result was perfect by the services of Mitch Barnett at Digital Room Calibration Services, Convolvers, Headphone Filtersets (accuratesound.ca) It was not difficult to get the speaker back to perfect working order. I had to do some soldering of the driver connections and also the crossover. I think my situation was a worst-case scenario, and it was not that difficult to get the speaker back to proper order.

@yyzsantabarbara I am just about 2hours away from CSS location in KY. Having said that, the CS3.7 is a very old speaker, and the owner is selling me for $6,999 a pair. I do not think it is a very atrractive price. Right now, I am still on the fence with that deal. |
