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!

@tomthiel,

Thank you. I too think the CS2.2 and that tweeter are pretty special and will look forward to hearing more about the enhancements.

One more question about my 1.6's and adequately powering them...is the IOM Ultra enough or is the 500 better? Is the 500 too much? Thanks!!

IOM Ultra

  • 125W stereo: Offers 125W per channel into 4 ohms.
  • 250W stereo: Delivers 250W per channel into 4 ohms. 
  • Trigger input: Allows for automatic power on/off with devices like the WiiM Ultra.
  • RCA inputs: Standard unbalanced inputs.
  • XLR inputs (optional): Provides balanced input connections. 
  • High Efficiency: Minimizes power consumption and heat generation.
  • Universal Mains Operation: Adapts to different power voltages.
  • Flat, Load-Independent Frequency Response: Ensures consistent audio quality across various speaker loads.
