Thiel 7.2 and the 3.7



Hello Folks:

Wondering if anyone has had the early opportunity to compare the sound of these speakers. The 7.2 is the best speaker I have ever heard and judging by the buzz and company releases on the 3.7, it should be an experience.

Yeah. I think so. Finally. It sounds like they had some driver mfg. problems initially. It seems like they go through this ever time. Maybe Jim Thiel should start to take these things into account before announcing time frames on delivery. Seems like common sense. This isn't the first time this has happened.
I notice from the Thiel site that the CS7.2 model is no longer listed - guess once the 3.7 is out (any month now!) then production on a new super speaker might be announced......CS8?
Wow. The CS6 gone and now the 7.2. Amazing.

I know the hope is for a "super speaker," but is there any hint that the 3.7 wonder technology might trickle down into a new 2.5?
From talking to Gary at Thiel the replacement for the CS7.2 is a long way off. I guess for that time the 3.7 is the top of the line offering.
The 7.2 is no longer......(except at my house where I hope they live forever)
I received an e-mail from Ken Dawkins, Thiels' VP of Sales reporting that there are now some 3.7s at dealer showrooms. He gave me the names of two in the Midwest and also commented that with advance notice an audition could be set up in Lexington after their two week shutdown.

This stemmed from a note I sent him regarding a used pair of 2.2 I bought on eBay for $500 and how impressed I was with these speakers. Never auditioned them before, unfortunately.

The $500 on the used 2.2's was the best value in a speaker I have ever encountered personally. I own speakers costing 20 times this amount. Don't get me wrong, the 2.2s aren't better, but at $500 they truly sound great. Now I too will be looking for an audition of the 3.7s.
