Vandersteen Quatro CT

I listened to the 5A's and the carbon 5A's and the difference was marginal to me. There are those who say you have to live with them for awhile to appreciate them (Richard told that to me)..... oh well.

I am using ClearDay double shotgun speaker cables.....quite wonderful....better than most that I've tried.   He'll send you a try out set for free...  Take advantage of it.  I have Vandersteen 5A's, 

Vandersteen is a prince in his treating of his customers.   I bought my Vandersteen 5A's in New Jersey (at Audio Connection..absolutely the best in retail audio...knows everything and is very fair)....moved to Arizona, and when Richard V. found out about it, he personally took charge and set up my speakers in my new home.   Just recently I thought I cooked 2 of my drivers...sent them to Vandersteen who returned them (one needed repair, one didn't).  Wonderful support and care.

Generally Audioquest works well for me.  I like Sky/Everest, the WEL worked far less well in my system.   Although I haven't had Cardas Clear in my system, all the others were a significant downgrade in including the Ayre line (I have all Ayre electronics)  Wireworld was wonderful...almost indistinguishable from ClearDay, except for an additional sense of ease....but you'd have to A/B them both to appreciate the top Wireworld.

...and the world turns.....
