... my problem with collecting too many models of Thiel speakers is that I am an Audio Note dealer. I need the space for demonstration of Audio Note products. What you are doing makes me wonder if there is a market for a used/modified Thiel dealer...

Tomthiel, I agree that the CS3.6 is the model to start with. There were so many sold, and they have had so many accolades, positive reviews, and historical references, that people who own them just love them, and people who dont, do remember them....

Regarding subwoofers for my CS3.7s, I am throwing caution into the wind, along with money  (gulp). I am buying two SS3 subs, and providing all the answers that I was hoping someone here could answer for me. The single SS2.2 I have now is on US Aud...

Do you mean the 3.6 made it, but the 3.5 and 3.7 didn't? I strongly disagree with that. Every model in the 3 series was an innovative step forward in audiophile speaker history. The O3a was reviewed as unmatched in palpability of imaging. The CS3....

And, there is more to this integration of SS subwoofers to CS3.7 speakers. The Thiel passive crossover that is specifically configured for CS3.7 speakers was designed to only have a mono output. So one subwoofer was the original design concept. I ...

Is there anyone reading this who has heard the difference between a SS2 subwoofer vs. a SS3 subwoofer?I just don't want two of these big subwoofers in my living room. So for me, it looks like I will have to experiment for myself, 1 SS2 vs. 1 SS3. ...

To anyone who has used Thiel SS2 or SS3 subwoofer(s), either single or pair, with CS3.7 speakers, playing 2-channel music (not multi-channel video), I would like to ask for your advice. I currently listen to a pair of CS3.7 with a single SS2 in th...

Add a Classe DR8, DR9, DR-10 or DR-100 amplifier, and all is perfect in this world.

Tomthiel wrote:"Just a thought. I suggest running the 3.5s wide open with no EQ. I remember the bass loading as critically damped, so it should approximate 12dB / octave. (But that's old memory) If you can match that rollout with a sub, the sub HF...

Oh, there's Santa now trying to stuff a pair of Thiel O3a speakers down my chimney. Oh how I have been hoping for another pair of these.

I have been having extensive telephone and email conversations with Tom about my love for certain models of Thiel (mostly the 3.5 and 3.7) and the one problem all have in common: a forward and agressive tendency in the upper midrange. As Tom exper...

The CJ Premier 12 amps are still expensive to buy used and expensive to re-tube when necessary. I would think a Premier 11 (the stereo version) would be a very nice substitute, and a fantastic amplifier to hear with the CS3.7s, also. I love CJ and...
