Thiel CS7 experiment

I thought I would share an experiment I did with my Thiel C7 speakers, which probably not too many people may have tried. I have owned a pair of Thiel CS7’s since 1996 and am still extremely happy with them. I was worried about them breaking down after all these years, and bought another pair as spares. The spares are in excellent condition, and as an experiment, I hooked them up to my Krell 350 MCx monoblocks as a second pair. So now I am listening to two CS7s per channel. Has anyone else tried two speakers per channel? I can only say that it sounds amazing. A wall of sound, great imaging, great bass. Call me crazy, but I am keeping it this way.

@unsound That will be an interesting experiment. I will try it when I have some help to move the speakers

Hi just curious, are both speakers CS7 (paper drivers) or 7.2 (aluminum drivers)?

@preener2  I have the CS7 speakers, not CS7.2. The base drivers are aluminum. The mid-low some type of plastic foam, the mid-low also uses some type of foam, the tweeter is aluminum. I don’t think paper is used for any of the drivers.
