Thiel Owners


Guys-

I just scored a sweet pair of CS 2.4SE loudspeakers. Anyone else currently or previously owned this model?
Owners of the CS 2.4 or CS 2.7 are free to chime in as well. Thiel are excellent w/ both tubed or solid-state gear!

Keep me posted & Happy Listening!

Thank You for referencing Glenn Poor's Audio and Video connection with Thiel Audio.  How do you like the B.A.T./ Thiel combination?

I would like to see you revive your SCD-1 player. It is quite nice to have a dedicated CD and SACD player.  Hope that you are well and looking forward to the fast-approaching holiday season.

Thank You for the DIY update.  How is the presentation and sound affected by peeling off the batt volume?

PM sent. We will always be here for you. It has been a pleasure having your presence as a valuable member of the Panel. I learned quite a bit of Thiel Audio history plus sonically matched gear per your writings.
In  the short-term, you will be missed.

As always, good to see you here my NY Brother.
Yes, the new (not better) rules,  for selling appears to be a point of contention. Hope Audiogon fixes this situation for the betterment of our Community.

the CS 3.5 is no doubt a Panel favorite. Incredible,  that you guys are still enjoying musical fruits via a loudspeaker that is 30 years old.  Incredible!

Welcome!  Good to see you here. You will find several members of the Panel who own the CS 3.6 loudspeaker. Which genre(s) of music are of interest?  What other gear including cabling are in your Thiel based system?

Thank You for addressing the query regarding 1.7 model. Very interesting history around this particular loudspeaker.  I, for one, am looking forward to more Thiel Audio history lessons in 2020.

Welcome! Good to see you here.  Agreed, life gets in the way of our hobbies and passions. It appears that the CS 2.2 is catching up with the 3.5 owners among the Panel.  Vintage models are certainly represented.I concur with your assessment and evalaution of Maggies / Vandies.
Incredible that we all connect on Thiel Audio versus the competition.

Welcome! Good to see you here.  Can you cite the Serial Numbers on your CS2 loudspeakers?  What other gear is in your current system?

Try to score an audition with a pair of CS 2.4 loudspeakers. This model will fit nicely into a medium/normal sized room.

Right On!  I wished that I lived closer to Rob or Tom.  Members of the Panel feel free to chime in if located near these gentlemen. I am certain that additional assistance would be appreciated.

A special Thank You to the DIY members of the Panel. Your hard work and passion,  to make Thiel loudspeakers better,  does not go unnoticed.

Excellent points all around. Ayre is successful due to Ryan Berry , Aerial Brown and Gary Mulder. Sure, the engineer has to be on-point, as well as, the business manager (CEO), customer service manager.

Thank You for the S/N.  Simaudio Moon is a sonic match, double check the power rating for CS2 for best outcome.  Several owners of the 600i/700i models.  Keep me posted on your purchase decision.

Thank You for assisting altx. Impressive,  that model CS2 is the most popular Thiel Audio loudspeaker.

Welcome! Good to see you here. Thielrules and sdecker offers sound advice.  In order to determine if the upgrade via a pair of CS 3.7 is warranted, seek out another audition. 10 years is a long time between demo time. 10 years ago Ayre had not invented the Twenty Series of gear.  Much changes.  Either way you go, retain your 3.6 or purchase 3.7, McCormack amplification  is a sonic match.  Several members of the Panel,  here and on other Audio forums, enjoy the McCormack brand.Keep us posted on your Audio journey.
Happy Listening!
sdecker
what are the power ratings on your McCormack DNA 0.5 amp?
Happy Listening!
sdecker
Thank You for those measurements.  Your amp is plenty powerful w/ 60A peak current on board.

Check out the CS 2.7 in White over on U.S. Audiomart. Location: Virginia.

Good to see you again. Equally good to read that Rob was able to assist in making your CS6 loudspeakers operational. I look forward in reading more about your musical tastes and system.
