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!

@solobone22 I stumbled across a pair of CS1.5 speakers for my small 10' x 12' detached home office.  The graph says they drop off under 45hz.  I wanted to add response down to 25hz.  Found a Velodine 12" sub that does the trick.  The combination is excellent.

@jafant you are most welcome.   the thing that many still do not understand is that a good set of sub bass speakers are not just about more bottom.  they add a richness and fullness to the sound that is amazing.  plus two can really help even out a room's dips and peaks in that region.  John Hunter at REL talks a lot about this concept and it is so true.   The thing is a pair of full range speakers have to be positioned in a spot that will inevitably cause some sonic compromises.  with a sub bass system,  the mains can be put in positions that optimize imaging and spaciousness without adversely affecting the lower frequencies.

Thank you for the REL confirmation as well.  

 

Happy Listening!

Welcome! Good to see you here today. Nice score on CS 1.5 speakers. Equally nice to read that Velodyne is a sonic match. I have heard their "DD" series suwoofer(s) in other systems that did not feature Thiel loudspeakers. I look forward in reading more about your Musical tastes and system(s).

 

Happy Listening!
