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!

Nice catch!  I hope these CS7 loudspeakers find the next good home.

 

Happy Listening!

@tomthiel  Would you happen to have the specs to the Integrator and room compensation components on the SmartSubs?

Hey all, I’m in the process of building a new retirement home and have two Thiel Powerplane 1.2 in wall speakers that I want to install to use in a two channel system. I read the Thiel owners/instruction manual which states that you don’t just want to mount them to drywall alone due to vibration possibility. I contacted Rob Gillum and purchased two metal support templates that fit between 16” center wall studs. Looks like a good solution for support and so that the drywall people can cut the correct hole. 
I guess my concern is that the studs are 2x4’s which in reality are 3.5 inches wide and the speaker dimension for depth is 3 and 7/8. Now, the drywall itself is a half inch which should bring the width to 4 inches. It’s cutting it close, but my assumption is that it should fit….anybody out there that has mounted these and can validate? 
I plan to do a “dry fit” before running speaker wire, but thought I would ask.
