Anyone heard the Vandersteen model #5?


Am very interested in this speaker. I've come a long way and have pretty much narrowed it down to 2: Vandersteen model #5 and Montana EPS. Has anyone heard the former? Got rave reviews in IAR and TAS. Thanks.

Someone else just asked the same question recently. I think the posts are in "Best of Audio". Anyway as I said there I recently sold a substantially more expensive speaker speaker/subwoofer combination for the 5s. I completely agree with JKphoto's post. Now that the 5s are tuned for my room I can't believe how articulate and musical they are. They are easy to drive and play all kinds of music well. They draw you into the music rather than pushing it into your face(though many prefer the latter). In my room, to my ears they are the most natural, enjoyable speakers I have ever heard.
