Hello guys, I have a pair of Thiel CS3.6 speakers in my possession. They are all blown out except for the subwoofers, which is why I got them for free. I'm currently in contact with Thiel about getting them restored, but I'm curious to see how much it would truly cost. I know you can't use Thiel speakers with just any old sound system, that would do them injustice. However, I haven't the faintest idea where to start, as I'm much more accustomed to headphone audio which is much simpler. Would someone be so kind as to tell me what, in addition to the speakers, I would need, and then give some general recommendations for purchasing ideas? I would be looking for a system good enough to be on the same level as the Thiels, but I would want to spend as little money as possible within that range. I realize it will still be quite a lot, but this is more a price gauge. If I can get a restoration on these plus a full sound system to go along with that for under $5000 I will be seriously considering it... I'd be playing CDs, vinyls, and preferably a digital/PMP/computer source as well, all though that is not necessary.
