unsound,For that very reason I will be keeping my CS 7.2. As good as my CS2.7 are, they lack the bottom end of the CS 7.2  which delivers in spades.

jhouse55,The models you have will be very comparable in size to the pair in that review. The CS 5, CS 5i, C6 CS7, CS7.2 are a different story. The smaller models .375" thickness will be fine or even .500". For the larger models .625" thickness wou...

jhouse55,Go on line and search Thiel outriggers. There is a review from Tom Lyle from Enjoy the Music that shows copious photos of the outrigger for the 2.4SE. There was never outriggers designed for the models I mentioned and the ones you mention...

As far as 6J5GT the circa 1930's RCA are the way to go. Whats the benefit of doing the 12v? 
Supratek Owners Thread

Thiel is no longer made and they were outsourcing overseas toward the end before doors were closed. Yes, there are US made products in audio industry but that percentage is dropping and yet the prices continue rise. We have had audio companies cal...

I assure you I get it. A good majority of Audio products/components are made overseas and yet the price remains in the realm of product made here in the USA where workers deserve to receive a respectable wage, healthcare, retirement, etc.... to ta...

jafant,I think you are missing the intent of offering a group offer. This offer was to make outriggers that mirrored what JT did on the CS2.4SE.Outriggers would be larger and thicker for larger models while maintaining  proportions the outriggers ...
