Upgrades for Thiel CS 3.6?
gpaulmg1I've owned my 3.6s for about 21 years and am experiencing a similar issue. I had my amp (Naim NAP300DR) updated about 1 1/2 years ago and that's when I first noticed an upper-mid/lower-upper harshness and "hashy" sound. I'm still not sure ...

I've owned Townshend Speaker Podiums for a couple years and use them under my Thiel CS3.6s. I recently posted a detailed evaluation of how the podiums affected the sound of my speakers in my room-as compared to spikes. If you're interested in my o...

uncle_monkeyRegarding your post and comment about the IsoAcoustics Gaias, I wanted to relay my experience.Give social separating and all, I've been spending time redoing my whole system; I've torn it apart, remade all contacts, isolated components...

tomthielI think shipping the speakers isn't a great option given the cost and risk of damage; Rob already told me he wouldn't recommend it for the larger speakers. The crossover board swap seems a good option-provided that detailed instructions ar...

jonandfamilyNot being able to listen to the 3.7s in my room is the primary reason I've not purchased them. While their high cost is a consideration, I'm more concerned with how the load they present compares to my 3.6s and my amp's ability to driv...

Those 3.7s on ebay are gorgeous. Every time a nice pair comes along I drive myself crazy. My 3.6s are sounding really excellent-with a caveat or two-and i wonder about the logic of spending so much given how good the 3.6s are. I also wonder weathe...

For something different -- i waited until after the SB to post :) -- based on a comment i read from Paul McGowan, i purchased Billie Eilish's new CD "when we all fall asleep, where do we go?" I listened to it earlier today and Wow! While not exact...

jafantI'd like to add my name to the list of folks who've expressed their thanks for this thread. This is probably the most knowledgeable and committed group of Thiel owners anywhere-and the fact that there have been no trolls or troublemakers in ...

mr_billWhile this is only my personal opinion-listening in my room with my gear-it's obvious that the 3.6s and 2.4s have many of the same positive attributes-of which we're all aware. I think the 2.4s are somewhat higher resolution speakers than t...

Naim Audio system owners - What speakers are you using with Naim?
I’m a long-time Naim owner (252/SC/300DR); have Thiel CS3.6 speakers and Thiel CS2.4s. Naim/Thiel was a great sounding combination UNTIL I had my 300 upgraded to DRabout a year ago. Now there’s an upper-mid hardness in my System that’s driving me ...

tomthielTo followup on jafant’s question regarding the hot rod updates, are you able to provide some details regarding your progress on the 3.6 upgrades? Are you planning to release “complete hot rod kits” for each model, or generic suggestions fo... 
Help choosing an amp for Thiel 2.7s
FWIW after-the-fact, I’ve been driving my CS3.6s and 2.4s with a Naim NAP300 amp with excellent results.  This isn’t a monster amp and doesn’t double-down, so I think it’s a mistake limiting the search for the “perfect amp” for driving Thiels to t...

sdl4Thanks for the suggestion to use Cable Company’s service to try out different speaker cables. I actually used them a couple years back to listen to different power cords. I haven’t had to think about speaker cables for many years, since Naim’s...
