Your experience with Thiel 3.6


Any oppinions(experience)on this speaker?

Looks great but I seem to hear mixed reviews from users, however reputable mags seem to love it (pretty old reviews though)? I'm currently auditioning the new Martin Logan Aeon speakers (nice but kind of bright), do you feel that moving to the Thiels is a move up? I'm looking for some clear mids and highs as well as some bass punch.

I have good source componets, and I listen to all sorts of music, from jazz to rock to r&b to techno.

Let's re-open this thread! I love my 3.6!!!
I brought mine a year ago on E-Bay for a NOS pair. I waited 10 years before I brought this speaker! Before that I have owned 2.2 and 2.4, brought new, then sold.
The 3.6 is the best thiel has designed as they had it in production for 10 years! What other speakers have lasted that long!
I bet even the new 3.7 is not going to win over it from head to toe.
I had this one for a few years too! Still one of the best at that price range but needed very good amplification. With its 2nd hand price so low, you need an amp at least 3 times the valve to justify its quality.
