What JL Subs to pair with Harbeth SHL-5 Speakers?
What ever you do use a real crossover, there is no substitute when using subs. 
subwoofer Bass in Systems
I run two JL E112s and would never concider going with out subs again. Using the digital crossovers that are built in. 
New Thiel Speakers - Post Jim Thiel Era
As a current thiel owner (CS2.4) I would not ever consider buying these new speakers and honestly it turns me off the whole brand. There are so many good speakers these days and sadly thiel is going backwards. 
So sub or not to sub
I am a big fan of sub in two channel systems but you have to run a true highpass crossover. It can not be done well with out it. 
Anyone hear the new Thiel 2.7 speakers at RMAF?
Glad you like them. They say about 200 hours for break in. I bought my 2.4s used and they never change in sound quality. 
Anyone hear the new Thiel 2.7 speakers at RMAF?
No worries. The 2.4s are very good and the 3.7 is great. These should slide right into the middle. The bass will take a while to break in most likely.

Ignore me I am talking non sence and can't read lol. I thought you were thinking of upgrading or getting a sub. Honesty I have only heard this in passing and I doubt they sound that different.
