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!

proud owner of thiel 2.2 and 2.3 i . thiel have one of  the best dynamic i heard so far (may be i heard too less).

if your amp have enough current , the tweeter and woofer can push or stop in a super speedy focus way that i still trying to find other speaker may do as well .

the only weakness they need warmer sound amp on the female vocal especially for the newer model like 2.3i but the 2.2 was fine . 

anyone can recommend any brand to upgrade for me?

thanks
hi

nice to meet all thiel owners. just grab a second hand cs6  from my past 2.3 and 2.4 . cs6  have a warmer mid as i listen so far . i did try lots of cable to get a warmer and thicker mid range . 

one thing really want to mention . the dynamic speed n punch of thiel was  the best i heard so far . using it for av system was just punchy as hell .the push n stop reaction just made the hdmovie more exciting . i did try find speakers that can replace thiel in speed but i cant . please let me know if u do know .

hope the real thiel will always be with you 
hihi

nice to meet u too ...

i owned a pair of cs6 ,ss2 and a mcs1 center . 

actually the first pair of thiel was 2.2,afterwards , i did have big trouble when i just start with 2.3i , the sound with meridian g68 pre amp and proceed hpa sound so lean . expecially all my cables are match for my previous krell pre amp with lots of mid n low . 

these are the cable that i think it works well with .

nbs speaker cable,cannot be power cable (soound obviouly harsh )
kimber pk10 (my thiel just cant lkive without it especially mcs1 will shout too high n burned tweeter few times)
madrigal gel one xlr ( thickest human vocal i try so far ) 

please share some matching cables too ....

regards


Hi 

Ihave a question.

Is there any user turn the volume really  high ? 

I m not sure if i can express myself.

I feel that i need to compressed the high note if i need to turn up the volume ? Will you have the same situation ?

And also when jim thiel test the speaker . will he use any high end or aftermarket cables ? Or only the normal black cable 

These question really confuse me because i did blown few tweeters already.

Please share your thought
hi thiel owners .

i just try a parasound hca3500 with my thiel cs6 . the result was quite good . high was detail and laid back , mid was thick , and especially the low was crazy as hell . i never imagine parasound will do this great with thiel . any of u using parasound ? i currently using bryston 7bst at this moment .

by the way i blown my mcs1 tweeter again . thinking not to do it at thiel because it just contiune to blown .sad.......
