Thiel Owners

You are damn right jafant.

I say you go back and pony up the extra 100 . Be done . Life is short . 

I almost bought a pair of CS2.3 but the owner doesn't have the original boxes therefore I'm leary to have them shipped in a different boxes. If I don't like them it's tough to sell without original their original boxes. Did you have a chance to audition 2.3 before buying your 2.4? What's the differences between the two do you know? thx.

I drive from NY to Boston to pick up my first pair of 3.5's for $850,  my second and current pair of 3.5's found me in deep New Jersey, but at $350 who am I to kvetch?

For my next upgrade into Thiel I will allocate a 5 hour trip, 10 both ways. 

They're worth it. Don't want nuthin' to happen to 'em when and if such an opportunity arises. 

PS:  I spoke with Rob at Thiel this afternoon regarding the suggestion made by unsound to modify my 3.5's equalizers - I have two - into balanced mono units.  While I'm still keen on going there eventually I'm putting the project on the back burner for now. 

I hasten to add that he is an absolute gentleman and it's very reassuring that those of us here can continue to have our legacy Thiels serviced. 
This serves only to make our purchases of them an even better investment - which they are. 

My speakers are smiling at me...
