| Thiel Owners Thiel CS3.6, # 4789 and 4790. | |
| Thiel Owners miyu...I agree with oblgny. The AR/Thiel setup is NOT a mismatch. I think there is a misconception that lower powered tube amps can't drive the Thiels. I have driven my 3.6s with the AR VSi60 and the Ref75 with excellent results. I am now very sat... | |
| Thiel Owners If you email Thiel through their website with your serial numbers, they will tell you the day they were produced. My 3.6s were completed on 5/22/1996. It's a testament to their quality that they are in such good physical and mechanical condition a... | |
| Thiel Owners oblgny,Your first impressions of the 3.6s sound just like my first and last impression. I'm a bass player (1977 Fender Jazz Bass) and I have never heard a speaker or speaker/sub combo that gave me such a "real" and uncolored bass sound while maint... | |

| Thiel Owners Thanks for your input prof. I'm not sure why I thought you had the CS3.6s. I'm curious why you preferred the CS6 over the 3.6s...do you think it was the coaxial design? I have always wondered what the CS7.2 would sound like with my setup. Jafant, ... | |
| Thiel Owners I have really enjoyed following this discussion over the last year. I have been more passive with opinions because I recognize that all of our senses are clearly subjective.oblgny...I'm reflecting back on our exchange on this discussion 8/31/16. S... | |
| Any Audio Enthusiasts in Alabama? I just wandered into this thread starting with your Thiel Owners thread. I'm in Vestavia Hills (Birmingham suburb) and I'm enjoying my Thiels like you. Are you nearby? | |
| Thiel Owners dlcockrum.....I don't mean to propagate sidetracking the Thiel thread either, but I could use your experience with Synergistic cables since I do believe they are good match for Thiel speakers. If I need to move this to private messaging, please le... | |
| Thiel Owners oblgny.....I totally agree with you about being nervous about any changes, because I have become very protective in preserving what I have and uneasy about potentially loosing it....like with normal wear from aging. As I test more speakers, I have... | |
| Thiel Owners Guys, I hate to switch gears but I bought some Thiel CS3.6s on Audiogon about 5 years and recently asked the manufacturer when mine were made based on their serial numbers. They say 1996....20 years old. They sound terrific, but is there something... | |
| Speakers with warm treble and good bass You seem to have my exact tastes for non-fatiguing, non-analytical sound with deep, warm bass. I purchased a preowned pair of Thiel CS3.6 on Audiogon for $1200 about 6 years ago and no other speaker I have tried comes close for my taste. I recentl... | |
| Audio cabinet or rack for Audio Research Ref 150 Excellent idea oregonpapa. The folding floor screen is the answer. | |

| Audio cabinet or rack for Audio Research Ref 150 We recently moved to a smaller house and now I do not have a dedicated room for my 2 channel audio. My wife loves to listen with me, but she does not like the "cluttered" look. I am trying to compromise some and make it look neater. |
