Thiel CS7 experiment

I thought I would share an experiment I did with my Thiel C7 speakers, which probably not too many people may have tried. I have owned a pair of Thiel CS7’s since 1996 and am still extremely happy with them. I was worried about them breaking down after all these years, and bought another pair as spares. The spares are in excellent condition, and as an experiment, I hooked them up to my Krell 350 MCx monoblocks as a second pair. So now I am listening to two CS7s per channel. Has anyone else tried two speakers per channel? I can only say that it sounds amazing. A wall of sound, great imaging, great bass. Call me crazy, but I am keeping it this way.

Hi just curious, are both speakers CS7 (paper drivers) or 7.2 (aluminum drivers)?

Hi oeneroorda,

Yes, my use of "paper" was not a good choice. It was a long time ago that I upgraded to the 7.2, it was a difficult mod at times and did cost a pretty penny.

For a laugh, I ended up putting the mid driver I took out of the 7.0's, and put them in my pinball machines, High Speed and Xenon. They sound great!

Happy Listening!
