| Thiel 2.7 VS 3.7??? Well said Rcprince, that is exactly how the larger CS6 plays in my room versus my 3.6. Moving more air with more ease and more relaxed when pushed through a complex passage.The 3.6 is an excellent speaker, I like to compare it a car going down the... | |
| Thiel death do we part . . . I dont know Bryston because I have never heard one. I have been a Thiel owner for 16 years, 3.6 and now CS6. The only power amps I have used with them are Classe CA200 and Mcintosh 501 monos. Both high current and more on the forgiving side of neu... | |
| Solving the THIEL CS 5i's - vs- CS 7.2 Debate I agree with Michaeljbrown about spacing. I have my CS6's spaced about 12 feet apart center to center and 3 feet from the front wall. That leaves me about 2 feet on each side but I have treatment on the side walls. And I sit about 14 feet from eac... | |
| Solving the THIEL CS 5i's - vs- CS 7.2 Debate I am with you audiolabyrinth and one day I may get serious about a Krell, right now everything is sounding good and I have to water and fertilize the money tree! It has run out of blooms! LOL! | |
| Solving the THIEL CS 5i's - vs- CS 7.2 Debate I disagree with Unsound's assessment of CS6 as compared to the 3 series. It is far superior to the 3.6, in every way and worth the price IMHO. They are a steal on the used market for around 3K. Can't compare to either speaker for your shootout Dav... | |
| Cable Costs Relative to System No doubt Audiolab - as you very well know I am in that camp! LOL - it just seems strange...thats all! 350 lbs of speaker with wire, drivers, parts, furniture and then.....a wire. Some things you just can't understand like for instance.....how does... | |
| New Thiel Speakers - Post Jim Thiel Era 01-14-14: Knghifi"Is it possible these companies go bankrupt are too PASSIONATE audiophiles and NOT good businessmen?"Oh positively in some cases, and there isn't much heritage built into an industry that relies so heavily on innovation. That make... | |
| Thiel CS6 Compared with Eggleston Andra 1 Alan, I am with you. I have CS6's which replaced Andra II, remarkable speakers. I am also a longtime Thiel 3.6er and will never sell them.The Eggy's are great speakers in their own right but the Thiel sound is just too hard to top once dialed in. ... | |
| New Thiel Speakers - Post Jim Thiel Era Onhwy61 is spot on. When Jim died the business did also. I could smell it with the new owners press release, it was the typical form letter.These people are not passionate entrepreneurs which is what the high end is about rather opportunist with t... | |
| Upgradying Tube Preamp I am also in the preamp being the most important camp....it has been for me. The preamp has the most affect on the tone of the signal and when you get it right you know right away. In conjunction with that I have also found the cable connection th... | |
| Cable Costs Relative to System I was just contemplating this very issue last night as I was fooling around in my audio room and it just struck me that my speaker cables, PAD Proteus Provectus, list for about what my Thiel CS6's do.I bought both on a heavy discount but it seems ... | |

| Seeking Rock&Roll Speakers Dweller - Thiel CS6. I have used Thiel 3.6 for 15+ years, have owned and listened to other speakers and could never get the Thiel sound out of my system. I just put CS6's in my system and they have exceeded my expectations. There is a pair up for ... | |
