I AGREE THAT THE VANDYS ARE INCREDIBLE FOR THE PRICE AND ARE BETTER THEN MANY SPEAKERS COSTING MUCH MORE.HOWEVER AFTER HAVING THEM IN MY SYSTEM,I NOW HAVE THE ALON II MKIII IN MY SYSTEM AND PREFER THEM.AS ALWAYS IT DEPENDS ON PERSONAL TASTE,ROOM ACOUSTICS,ELECTRONICS,CABLES AND OVERALL SYNERGY!THE VANDYS ARE HARD TO BEAT ,BUT THE ALONS REALLY PUT ME IN LALA LAND!! RICH
