I've been quiet on this forum but had started to follow this thread lately. I got to say that I am very happy to see people like tomethiel here sharing lots information about the brand history and products. My experience with CS3.5 ( back in 2001? ) turned me into a Thiel believer, and had since added pair of CS 3.6, and moved 3.5 into bedroom :) They are just fabulous :) So just greetings to all, i think we are a group of happy people here.
