Thiel Tweeter issue

I have a set of used Thiel CS1.2's I recently bought cheap. Of course they were a little dirty, but at low levels sound great! At higher levels though, the tweeter sound harsh, and has got progressively worse. I am having an issue finding a 25TAC/GW-TH H420 60hm 26/90 tweeter replacement. Anyone know a solution? I would be willing to change both tweeters to match, if a different tweeter would be an improvement over the original. Any help would be great! thanks.

Oak-

if/when you find a replacement tweet, make sure that you replace each tweeter over both speakers. Continue to watch
both A'gon and eBay for these pieces of gear.

I love Thiel loudspeakers and consider them my reference.
Reproducing timbre is their strongest suit.

Keep me posted and Happy Listening!

Oak-

there are several pairs of the CS 1.2 models on eBay now.
Different price points should render you a very good price in picking up an extra pair of these loudspeakers.

Keep me posted and Happy Listening!

Thanks! for sharing- Oak.

It is good to read that Thiel offers drivers for these old speakers. This really says a lot about the company and customer service in general.

When you receive your re-built tweet(s), let us know how they sound. Keep me posted & Happy Listening!
