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!
Thank you for endorsing Straight Wire. This is certainly a fine brand that I have heard with other Gear/Speakers. I wish that I could remember the Models?
I am using Purist Audio Venustas luminist revision for IC’s. I’ve never heard maestro IC’s but have always been curious. I bought the Maestro II SC about 10 years ago from the cable company after a trial.
I have been through a lot of cables/combinations and the SW is the best sub 1k wire I’ve heard in my system. Other more expensive cables were overkill, I don’t believe you have to spend Uber money on Speaker cables for Thiels. That’s been my experience fwiw.
Very interesting combination of P.A.D. Venustas and SW Maestro II.
I wish that I could remember the SW cables I heard in 2 different systems circa 2012-2013. I know that each was entry level to mid tier and covered in Red Jackets. The presentation and sound were very fine. Agreed, if One carefully matches Cables and Gear, no need to spend large sums of money. Thiel speakers are so revealing and transparent, overkill is easily achieved.
Thank you all for your cable recommendations. After buying the 3.7s new purchases will take some time. But I will keep your advice in mind. Another question I have to clarify is whether I will need power conditioning. At the moment I don't have one...
