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!

I own a fully restored (by Krell in 2020) KSA 250s paired with a Krell KRC 3 preamp through balanced connections. Would this match well with a pair of CS 3.6? The KSA is rated at 2000 watts into 1 ohm.

Here is a link to the particular speakers. I asked about them awhile back and y’all discussed this pair. https://www.soundsgoodtomehouston.com/thiel36.html

Ii like speakers that I can feel as well as hear if that makes any sense. Do the 3.6’s move a lot of air? If I could get them for $1200 it seems like it would be an interesting experience.

My digital source is an Innuos streamer into an Ayre QB9 DSD dac also using balanced connections.

Thanks in advance for any opinions.

Tom Thiel, thanks for the reply. I wish I could locally find a stock pair the way they were intended to be… My gut was telling me to pass on these as they could be less than a shadow of what they were intended to be but I’ve been watching this particular pair for several months. Thanks again for the reply. Andrew

Is there any chance these modified 3.6’s are worth auditioning or should I steer clear?

Does my Krell 400xi integrated have what it takes to properly drive a pair of 3.6’s?

Thanks
First, thanks for the-replies to my post.  
Second, I had some knowledge of the research and painstaking effort that was put into the original speakers but this really expanded my knowledge.  I was leaning towards passing on auditioning these and looking for a non modified pair and that is what I will do.   Thanks again.
