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!

Still enjoying Cardas cabling as well? If so, which models/series of cables/cords?

Nice score! on the B.A.T VK 250.  Good to read that you like the VK 250 / CS 2.4 combo. What other gear and cabling rounds out your System?

Welcome!  good to see you here. Nice pairing on those CS 2.2 & CS 3.6 loudspeakers. Take time to read back to a few pages where Tom discussed this very matter.  What other gear and cabling is in your System? Musical tastes?

Today marks this thread's 9th Anniversary here on AudiogoN. Since inception, we are acquiring and attracting new Contributors and Members of the Panel. Most of you guys enjoy Jim's earlier or vintage models as well. A model for every Audiophile!
It was another banner year in 2024 as membership continues to grow. 
As for this New Year, I would like to direct everyone's attention to Tom's diligence and hard-work on all things Thiel Renaissance. This Endeavor will no doubt attract Audio insiders and press. Dealers and Retailers will be next in line. Stay Tuned.

Thank You! to The Panel for continuing to "make it happen" in 2025.

Welcome! Good to see you here.  Excellent advice as above. Start with Rob at CSS for replacement grill(s) for your CS 3.5 speakers.  What other gear and cabling is in your System? I look forward in reading more about your Musical tastes as well.

jazzman7 brings up a great point. If you have not made or upgraded your Virtual Systems page, please do so. We work incredibly hard to acquire and build these Audiophile systems. Why not show it?

Nice score! on those CS 2.2 loudspeakers.  I hope your CS 1.5 speakers find the next good Home.

Thank You for your DIY hard work on making the CS 2.4/2.4SE loudspeaker, better.

Bel Canto is a sonic match. Not sure about NAD amp(s)? Anthem is another Class-D consideration. Keep me posted as you audition these brands.

Welcome! Good to see you here. Yes, I have seen those very speakers per your query. Those white woofers are quite rare. If you like the presentation and sound of CS 1.5, the CS 1.6 is a measure better. The CS 1.7 is significantly better.

 

What gear and cabling is in your System?
