Vandersteen Quatro Wood CT


I am considering buying a pair of used Vandersteen Quatro Wood CTs. I have a few questions. Are the Hi-Pass filters easy to set up? It looks like you need a volt meter to set them up. In addition, if you want to change amps you have set them up again. I'm also, considering new Treo CTs. Is the jump up to the Quatros significant enough to deal with the Hi Pass filters? I may have to pay someone to set them up. I checked HIFI Shark for used prices and they are in the range of 7500 to 13K. New Treos list for 11K.

The HP filters are easy-peasy to set-up.  Any dealer can assist you or Vandersteen directly.  We used our preamp and amplifier on them and placed them almost up against the wall for WAF.  The sound amazing when matched with the correct components.  There is a chart on the cover of the filters so as mentioned before, once you know the amp specs or you can use a meter to measure that (place the probes on the meter on the output jacks and that is it) you are ready to go with each amplifier.  Nothing to be concerned about at all.

I love having the capability to dial in bass response on the Vandy speakers.

Happy Listening.
