More from a previous Crutchield listing:
Outstanding high-performance sound
THIEL speakers are renowned among audiophile circles for their superb performance. The MCS1 delivers breathtaking THIEL sound in a convenient, compact design. You can place this slender speaker either vertically or horizontally — making it ideal for multichannel home theater systems. Set it upright on a stand for use as a front or surround speaker, or place it horizontally for a matching center channel.

High-tech speaker drivers - Remarkably clear treble
The secret to the MCS1's incredibly lifelike sound starts with a newly designed midrange/tweeter array. The MCS1 houses the tweeter inside the midrange, with a mechanical crossover separating the two drivers. This ingenious design maintains the proper time alignment for the high and midrange frequencies, creating unparalleled accuracy and realism.

Richly detailed, musical bass
Bass comes courtesy of an aluminum woofer with a cast magnesium chassis. A motor structure consisting of a short voice coil sitting inside a large magnet effortlessly drives the woofer. Unlike the voice coils found in most speakers that extend outside the magnet, the deliberately short voice coil always "sees" the optimum magnetic field as it travels back and forth. This eliminates distortion caused by variances in magnetic strength. Bass is full, rich, and musical — perfectly complementing the treble without being overbearing.

State-of-the-art crossover
The "unsung hero" of any speaker is the crossover — it directs the right frequencies to the right drivers so you don't have a tweeter trying to reproduce bass and a woofer trying to reproduce highs. THIEL meticulously engineered their first-order crossover to achieve tonal neutrality. The advanced crossover ensures that musical information such as amplitude, phase, and time remain faithful to the original signal.

A finely crafted cabinet
The super-strong one-inch-thick cabinet features internal bracings to enhance rigidity and minimize sound-muddying internal resonance. The front baffle sports curved edges to reduce unwanted diffraction, for improved tonal and spatial performance.

The SkyFi Testing Process for Speakers:

Our speaker evaluation process starts with a visual inspection of all drivers. We are looking for damaged or deteriorating woofer surrounds, dented tweeter domes, and cone damage. We also inspect the speaker connection points for loose or broken connectors.

After the initial visual inspection we connect the speakers to a reference amplifier with our preferred test tracks. With the speakers placed with proper distance we listen to each driver to make sure that they are producing the intended frequencies with no signs of distortion or rattle. During listening tests with test tracks we check for proper stereo imaging and bass response at various listening levels. If there are any audible signs of issues, the speakers are taken to the bench where we perform a frequency sweep to isolate the issue so that it can be resolved by component repair or replacement.
