Thiel Owners

ronkent

As always, your Thiel experience and ownership are invaluable here. Thank You for providing sage advice.  I wonder if Jim had a certain model in-mind when he designed then manufactured his Thiel Smart Sub system?

Happy Listening!

REL -

to my ears, does indeed manufacture the best Subwoofer in the business. Modern or vintage, there is a Model for every Audiophile.

Happy Listening!

CS 2.4 / CS 2.4SE

an update for fellow fans and owners. I have my pair of CS 2.4SE measured as follows.  39" from back wall, 65" from side walls. 105" apart. My room measures,

16W x 12D x14H.  I will keep re-working these dimensions as I burn-in my Cabling.

Hope this helps.

Happy Listening!

I love Rel subs as well.  I use a pair of Rel S812s with my 3.7s in the main system.  I have an old Rel Strata III in my upstairs bonus room (basically a guest bedroom that gets used infrequently) with a pair of GR Research N3s (MTM with a ribbon tweeter).  I also have a Sumiko S.5 subwoofer (Sumiko used to distribute Rel and from what I understand it is a copy more or less of a Rel T5) in a spare 2-channel system (with a pair of an old Selah audio SA2s - 2 way bookshelf speakers with a ribbon tweeter) in a medium sized bedroom downstairs.  There are other nice subs but I've owned a bunch of Rels (old Storm IIIs and a Q series in a spare HTA) over the years.  I find them easy to set-up with the aid of a RTA.

@jafant what a great room with a high ceiling.  i bet the acoustics are pretty good. i am blessed to have a high cathedral ceiling.   the back wall is about 54" back and the speakers are about 98" from center to center.
