Thoughts on Thiel SS2 Sub

Modern subs are really good.   Some have room correction and full PEQ.  They have come a long way.

of the SmartSub series.  We are located under Speaker topic.

Happy Listening!

I have an ss2 subwoofer in a 5.1 home theater configuration consisting of Thiel cs2.3 front speakers, cs1.5 rear speakers, Thiel scs2 center speaker, Anthem mca 50 five channel amplifier and an Anthem avm60 surround sound processor, all this equipment preowned. I can also use the subwoofer and the front speakers in a stereo configuration using my vpi scoutmaster turntable. I used the arc software supplied with the surround sound processor to integrate the subwoofer seamlessly with the remaining Thiel speakers. I have had no problems with any of my Thiel speakers other than one of the cs2.3 speakers which required a substantial rebuild after a few months. I have been using the sub for several years without any problems.  
So if the price is reasonable and you can determine that the sub works before purchasing from my experience I would go ahead with the transaction.

Feel free to join us over on Thiel Owners thread.  You have a pretty cool HT set up.

Very interesting utilizing CS 2.3 and CS 1.5 loudspeakers in 5.1 surround sound.

Anthem is a sonic match for Thiel Audio.,

Happy Listening!

@chiefsteward1 sorry for not responding to your DMs. I don't have that option enabled. SO I can't text people privately so I will send my thoughts hear. For that cost, yes you can get the Thiel sub and subwoofers sounding boomy have mostly the room to blame as you can't escape room mode peaks and nulls. that is just physics
