Introduction

The late Jim Thiel and company have been making speakers in the heartland of Kentucky for over 30 years. THIEL has amassed a staggering 55 accolades from international press, including the high performance audio industry’s most prestigious publications. The SCS4T is part of the J.E.T. series and offers the most affordable line of speakers that THIEL currently manufactures. The SCS4Ts are a compact tower design that uses the “coherent source” driver configuration that is found in the SCS4 bookshelf units. These small, versatile speakers are designed to give great sound for music or movie soundtracks alike. After about 80 hours of breaking them in, I settled back to see if they could live up to the “THIEL sound heritage” established by their bigger brother, the CS3.7 towers.
