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'll vouch for the 1.2 as being the first second-generation Thiel speaker. It preceded the CS5 and as such was the working trial for our first copper motor shunts, and aluminum dome tweeter. This was the first product to benefit from our investment in Finite Element Analysis. And it shows.

The CS1.2 is one sweet speaker as is, plus it lends itself very well to XO component upgrades.

May I join the club?

I recently brought home a pair of CS7 speakers and have been soaking in audio nirvana since. Big imposing speakers much too large for my room (temporary), yet they completely disappear when the music starts.  And the bass...OMG.

Just one thing... Does a manual exist for this speaker? The Internet is saturated with literature on the 7.2, but I'm finding nothing on the 7.

Does anyone have any insights on how the 2.4 compares to the 5i? I am currently using the 2.4, but a pair of 5i popped up close to me and the opportunity to own a top-of-the-line-model is hard to resist. They are a bit older than the 2.4 though and the 2.4 gets very high praise, which makes me wonder how their performance compares.

Welcome!  Good to see you here. Are you selling those CS 1.2 speakers to move up the Thiel chain?  I look forward in reading more about your Musical tastes and System.

 

Happy Listening!
