Wow, great!
I am surprised (and, happy) you are getting such a defined change.

Help, My Vandies Sizzle

I know you just got things working, but maybe sometime in the future, doing something with the speakers would probably be a good idea. I'm pretty sure you can send the speakers to Vandersteen and have them brought up to Signature 1 status. I know that's not completely current, but its a huge upgrade from what you now have. I put my Sig 1's next to my 1.7's, 802D's and Wilson Cubs and they beat all 3 speakers in almost all areas. |
which NAD do you have ? a thought... sell the Krell and trade the old Vandys in on the best new pair of 2 's Richard is a tireless continuous improvement freak ! I heard a pair of his latest 2 signature at Stereo Unlimited in San Diego and was shocked at how fantastic they are...on a small Rouge integrated.. You get real trickle down engineering and a consistant design philosophy across the line. I will admit my bias...listening to my 3 rd pair of Vandersteens as I write this... the dedicated line is cool ! thanks for sharing your outcome. Try to get all your wallwart switcher supply stuff on another dedicated line...that will also shock you.... |
Hello Tomic601, Thanks for the thoughtful suggestions. I am delighted how much better things sound, even more so since tweaking tilt-back, and postions of speakers and listening seat. I am keeping an open mind concerning new 2s and swapping the Krell. Unfortunately at this time, my wallet doesn't open as wide as my mind... Tom |
