| Subwoofer with Thiel 2.4s? ^ There were different smart sub offerings that could adjusted various Thiel models. Thiel stopped making true full range speakers after the CS 5i's and the subs were necessary for those wanting all that might exist in and on their music collecti... | |
| Anyone seen or heard new Thiel CS3.7 ^FYI, with their 33Hz +/- 2 dB bass response they don't really need too big a room, unless used with a sub, which is probably a good idea. | |
| Thiel Owners The 3.5 midranges with their paper surrounds occasionally need to be rebuilt. I've had both of my pair rebuilt by Thiel once gratis 10 years after the warranty ran out, only had to pay for shipping there. I sure miss Shari Graham and the non parei... | |
| Thiel Owners Within their power range those Forte 7's were wonderful! | |
| Anyone seen or heard new Thiel CS3.7 ^When possible it is best to avoid identical room dimensions. Typically when one is discussing room size it is done with total volume cubed, though for our purposes there can be draw backs that too. | |
| Thiel Owners ^Pass Labs. Both Pass & c-j make nice stuff, but Pass really works best with balanced inputs, and alas c-j only comes single ended. | |
| Thiel Owners ^Why so centered on integrateds rather seperates? | |
| Best amp choice for Thiel 2.4 I haven't found the Pass X series amps to be lean at all with Thiels, if anything ever so slightly on the other side of neutral, and a very lovely match indeed. As for the power levels, so much of that depends on the specific Thiels under consider... | |
| Thiel Owners ^ideally little to none, but if one has a difficult room with speakers close to the side walls it might be better to add more toe in. | |
| audible illusions m3a No personal experience, was interested at one time, to be honest the output impedance was a serious concern for me, but the infamous reputation for customer support ultimately scared me off. | |
| Integrated Amp recommendation for $300 that will balance well with Vandersteen and NAD Perhaps used Rotel. | |
| Small vinyl system..Thiel, Musical Design preamp, + ? Acurus amp? Trying to jog my memory, but my recollection of the Acurus was that it had a rather low input impedance which might be a concern with some tube pres. The sound of the Acurus amps as I recall, had bass that competed with much more expensive offeri... | |
| Thiel Owners robinbarbour, Close, but not quite:http://www.stereophile.com/content/thiel-cs72-loudspeaker-specifications#zxQKTPbzDr4CaVoc.97Keep in mind that the 3.5's and the 5's did with it sealed boxes too. | |

| Thiel Owners Thiel CS 5's and 5i's were full range. |
