..just thought I'd touch base with Audiogon and advise any of you with Vandersteen speakers to upgrade the power cord. I used Cardas clamshell connects and Neotech wire. The connects (I believe ANY connector made for us Audiophiles will not fit.) I took the IEC plug apart...removed the clamshell, removed the metal connecting pins, and sanded off a few mm of plastic of the insertion pug itself. I got it all together, and it is certainly a worthwhile project. Not only are the lows tightened up, but the whole speaker sounds much better ...faster, cleaner, etc. Worthwhile.
