Calling on Vandersteen 5a owners


I am getting ready to pull the trigger on a pair of Vandersteen 5a/VCC-5 speakers. I decided to go with the cherry finish. Is the high gloss finish worth the extra $$? I have not been able to see the cherry finish in person, can anyone comment on the finish? My dealer said it is by far the most popular finish. Any regrets with your purchase?

Thanks Rob

I've had my 5A for almost 2 years. A great product, very happy. My standard walnut is very nice but not great IMO.

Have not seen the cherry in person either but several months ago a pair in cherry was for sale here with outstanding pix. Don't recall if it was high gloss or not but the natural cherry finish looked fantastic, just like cherry should. A great choice. BTW, I have a lot of cherry woodwork (and some walnut)in my house.

I would call Vandersteen about the high gloss & cherry.

Rob, what amp are you thinking of using?
