Thiel Owners

I bought most of my stuff at audio consultants.  Libertyville and Hinsdale closed but Evanston and Chicago are still there.  I mostly buy used and they've got a nice selection of used stuff.  I've been watching their website for so many years if it ever went down I'd probably need a shrink.

Audio Consultants is down to just one store now in Evanston.
From what Scott told me the value of the real estate was such that it no longer made sense to hang onto the Chicago location.

But agree, perusing the recent arrivals on Audio Consultants Used Equipment list is a daily ritual. It is where I found my 2.4s along with a few other items. I get my hair cut at Jay's Barber Shop just around the corner on Maple, and following my hair cut it is very hard to resist popping into Audio Consultants to look around, chat or simply say hello. 

Hello to all, great write up Tom!  Well my speakers arrived on Wednesday. The piano black finish is fantastic! However my left speakers midrange is not working. I will contact Rob at coherent source service and see if there’s anything They can do.
Not sure if I will keep or return if I can not get a new midrange speaker for it. Maybe look for some 1.5s.
