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!

@guy48065 Old technology now. When you think about it, it’s not much different than how the RIAA curve in vinyl tampers with the signal or crossovers slice up the frequencies in the analog domain. As bass frequencies are the least beamy and more omnidirectional it makes the most sense to use DSP there. Such use could also lend itself to the use of. “SWARM” multi sub use to even out room peaks and dips. 
I will say that to my ears bass is more directional than the theory would suggest. And the simple elegance of full range loudspeakers is most appealing.

ronkent,

It hasn't come through yet but when it does I'll respond. 

I'm Still awaiting any info on Rex 300. I tried call BAT but it went to voicemail.

Another candidate is Sims Audio Moon 761/861as they are at almost the same price points.

From experience an amp is challenged with the Thiel bottom end. It takes a certain amp to have the slam/speed/bass definition that the Thiel's possess, but short comings in certain amps act as a veil and prevent that from coming through.

 

i just sent a response again and included my email and phone number but they are not letting it thru.

Good to read that you still enjoying spinning CDs on the AYRE and Luxman.

Both are excellent Players.

 

Happy Listening!
