Should I buy used Thiel CS5


Stumbled across a pair of these beasts at a used stereo store. I can get them for 3 grand. The loudspeakers are probably 30 years old. Would you goners grab these for 3 grand or get something new for 3 grand. What new would you recommend for 3 grand?

jeffvegas,

For a price point, I have a pair of CS5's that I bought for $2600 including delivery about two/three years ago.They are oak with the cream colored grills.

I had to replace one of the yellow speakers (largest of the three small ones) about  a year ago. Otherwise no problem except finding a good DAC to tame the tweeters which can sound sharp.

Thanks for listening,

Dsper
