Anyone using McIntosh with Vandersteen Quatros

How do you like your quatros? How were they to initially set-up? I know I am not answering your original thread but I had to ask. ;)

I can't imagine it would not be an excellent pairing. Do you own it, or are you contemplating it?

Yes, I own it. Setup of the Vandersteens is a bit of a chalange. The Vender tells me I have a bass problem in my room and I need to buy bass traps. I am hoping to chat with anyone who has been through this to see how long it took to setup the Vandersteens and or any experiance with this equipment combo. I thhink they are both good equipment but thus far I have not felt the majic.

Ive never had your speakers but own a Mac amp.I borrowed some anti-cables once just out of curiousity ,IMO straight wire from Lowes worked out about the same.So I would suggest dumping those and going with a better quality cable for starters..As far as bass traps I made my own,lots of DIY info on the net and youll save big $$$ going that route/cash saved will pay for those better cables.

Although I've owned both brands I can't comment on this combo. But if you're looking for bass traps, FWIW, I've had good luck with these:

GIK Tri-traps

They're effective, relatively cheap, and don't look awful.
