Thiel Owners

Happy Friday! All

Hi guys, would like to hear from folks who have redone internal wireing of their Thiels.

Did you experiment with other wires than the stock ones like Cardas for exemple ?

Did you notice any improvement ?

Thanks

Welcome! Good to see you here.  Excellent advice as above. Start with Rob at CSS for replacement grill(s) for your CS 3.5 speakers.  What other gear and cabling is in your System? I look forward in reading more about your Musical tastes as well.

Happy Listening!

I rewired my 2.7 with Cardas when I found out that the speakers had wire that (I think) was used on the " new Thiel " speakers , a 16awg stranded lamp cord style .

At first I used 15.5awg for all 3 speakers , I then switched to 17.5 for the coaxial speakers and keep the 15.5 woofer for the woofer and for the speaker cable postes to the crossover boards .  I am very happy with the results especially because I bought the wire on sale and before the price of copper went up .

The one negative I can offer for using the Cardas wires Is that you should to use a hotpot to remove the lacquer coating .

Many thanks @vair68robert
