Thiel Owners

tomthiel

My pleasure to connect you guys. From 2000-2010, was a magical decade for CD/SACD player owners to enjoy upgrading their wares by the likes of, Bill Thalmann, Dan Modwright, Matt Anker, Steve McCormack, Warren Gregorie.

I am sure that there are 1 or 2 others missing from my list. Sadly, Audiophiles are down to Modwright. Conrad Johnson nor McCormack is not planning to build another player anytime soon. The others are no longer involved in Audio modifications to my knowledge. Thank goodness we still have the DIY guys aside from those once large Operations.

Happy Listening!

Happy Friday! All

In case anyone is interested, TMR has listed a pair of CS 2.4SE serial# 127,128

They are asking $3148.95 + $399 shipping within continental US

FWIW: These serial numbers place this pair in Lexington-Thiel production with USA AcoustaCoil coils, best-spec wire, and Solen polypropylene caps, on point to point masonite boards. We have seen that later Chinese production had lower spec parts including polyester caps on PC boards and variable coil quality. If you want a pair, this one would be a good one to get.
