| Thiel Owners it looks/sounds like my MCS1 has a blown coaxial driver. Rob can rebuild it for the price of an entry to mid level center speaker from Kef or Elac. So my dilemma is that do I have Rob do the rebuild or it's time to move on? I am using CS3.7 for my... | |
| Which integrated amp would you pick? You can get a b stock Parasound P5 and b stock A21 for around $3k from the dealers mentioned in this thread. Which I think would be a lot better than their integrated amp. But i wonder why there are so many b stock parasound units for sale? | |
| Thiel with "Warmest" Midrange? 2.7 vs 3.7 vs Older get the CS3.7, I used to own a pr of Cs2.4, I was going to upgrade to a pr of CS2.7 when Thiel had the price drop on CS2.7 from 10k to 8k, so I thought I should be able to trade in my CS2.4 and get CS2.7 for under $5k. So one weekend, I drove abou... | |
| what do i power my thiel 3.6 with $1000CAD is cheap, if you don't like them, you should be able to get at least $1200USD for them, and chalk it up as a profitable lesson. | |

| The best Krell components for a dual purpose what do you mean by 'upgrade at the factory'? what makes you think Krell units are upgradeable? | |
| Solving the THIEL CS 5i's - vs- CS 7.2 Debate it's nice to know we still have a lively thread going about 2 discontinued speakers from Thiel. The new owner just doesn't know what he bought and it's sad to see he is throwing all that away with the new direction its headed. | |
| Thiel 2.7 VS 3.7??? Do it! I had the chance, and to make a long story short, I bought the CS3.7. I am gonna cut and paste what I wrote in a Thiel thread in another forum. if you've been researching online, you've probably seen this already.Went to my closest Thiel de... | |
| Emo dumps Carver, the Carver site is down. good news for potential new customers, suck for current owners. | |
| Starting a new dedicated HT any room treatment, soundproofing? I DIY my home theater, if I could do it again, I'd definitely spend some time and money on treating the room first, because once your room is done, you can't go back and redo them easily. The speakers and all the... | |
| Today's New York Times Fidelis had an open house in June featuring wilson Audio speakers. I got a postcard from Goodwin last year or so for the Sony speaker demo. Emotiva did a roadshow in Boston in June too. Stores do send out communications and let you know about thei... | |
| What the best 89-90 db speaker I can buy for 3k? AudioKinesis, most of their speakers are 93db effciency. But only the Rhythm Prism is in your price range. I have no experience with this brand, but the guy that sold me his pr of Thiel CS2.4 a while ago told me that he was upgrading to a pr of Au... | |
| Attention Thiel CS3.7 owners Thiels are bright? Maybe 10-15yrs ago with the older models. Ive not heard the new CS1.7, but anything since CS2.4 are not bright, Id call them natural sounding. Maybe they heard them with some bright sounding sources. Anyway, Ive upgraded from... | |
| Speakers for newbie if you could tell us what you didn't like about the Paradigm Signature Series (which model #?) and what sound you are trying to get out of a pr of speakers, we might be able to steer you some brands and models that you might like. My guess is that... | |
| TAD Evolution 1 vs Thiel CS3.7 I’ve just upgraded from a pr of CS2.4s to CS3.7s, it’s a big jump in performance and I think and hope I am done upgrading my L&R speakers for a long time. I love the CS3.7s’ holographic image with a wide soundstage. Maybe it is my room, with t... |
