Vandersteen VLR CT

Been living with the VLR CTs (powered by the Moon ACE) for just over a month now (thank you Ultra Fidelis). I'm blown away by their performance. Vastly improved over the normal VLRs. They made the LS50s I had sound like they were buried underneath a pile of mud. I've listened to a lot of speakers, and I know there are many other variables, but I can't think of anything I've heard under $9K that would compete with the VLR CTs. I've never posted to this forum, but felt compelled to after an especially great day of listening. If you're on the fence, here's a nudge.

Bob,

  I agree! You really do get your money's worth from his products. The first vandersteen speaker I heard was the VLR. I was comparing it to the 1C. Couldn't make up mind. Next thing I knew, I was sitting on my couch at home in front of a pair of 2CE Sigs. I think it was some kind of hi-fi blackout. I've had a few more since then.

I wasn't even expecting to like the VLR CT's. I didn't think they would be able to do much in my room. I live in an old warehouse with big rooms and super tall ceilings. I was completely wrong.

Anyway, would like to say thanks to everyone for being nice to a first time poster. I sometimes cruise around audiophile blogs only to find people being terrible to other people.
