CS2.3

The THIEL CS2.3 reflects our highest standards for
sonic reproduction, regardless of price or class.

• 

A 3-inch thick baffle, 1-inch thick

cabinet walls, and internal bracing

greatly increase cabinet stiffness. By

reducing unwanted vibration, both

clarity and imaging performance are

improved.

• The baffle’s rounded edges contribute

to very open sound by significantly

reducing edge diffraction.

• 

THIEL-designed and built drivers

incorporate several innovative design

techniques to reduce diaphragm

resonances, increase output levels, and

lower distortion.

HE 3-WAY CS2.3 INCORPORATES

many of the advanced driver,
enclosure, and crossover design

principles used in larger and more
expensive THIEL models, but does so
at a lower price and in a moderately
sized cabinet. The CS2.3 employs a
1-inch metal dome tweeter coaxially
mounted with a 3.5-inch midrange
driver, and an 8-inch metal diaphragm
woofer, with a passive radiator.

THIEL’s unique 

Coherent Source

design provides greater realism

The CS2.3’s outstanding performance
is achieved in part by THIEL’s 

Coherent

Source

 design technology which

preserves the music’s time and phase
information for much greater realism.
Phase correct crossover design and
time correct driver mounting provide
natural three-dimensional imaging and
greater clarity. The CS2.3’s high
performance also results from our
extremely thorough engineering,
rugged construction, and use of
unusually high quality components.
