| Tekton Double Impact vs. Vandersteen 2ce sig II I am watching this thread with great interest as I currently own the Sig II’s and want to pull the trigger on some Electrons (the smaller version of the DI’s). And yes, the Treo CT's are amazing!!!! | |
| The Question,Tekton Pendragons or Focal 1028 BE Hi Chip,My room is similar in size as yours. Eric recommended three models according to my room, listening preferences, and budget. They were: Lore Reference, Enzo 2.7, and Electron. I’ve been on a hunt for info on the Enzo 2.7s ever since but it’... | |
| Seeking informed advice on speaker acquisition (Vandersteen vs. OHM Walsh) @arturos73 Thanks for the heads up on the idiot-proof warning lights. I had no idea they were there. @mr_m Are you saying you've never had better sound with the Treos CT's and the 2Wq sub? I'd love to move up to the Treos some day. But between hom... | |
| Seeking informed advice on speaker acquisition (Vandersteen vs. OHM Walsh) @tomcarr Any recommendations? My friend has Vincent separates and they sound fantastic. I would love to hear a Vincent integrated with a tube pre. | |
| Seeking informed advice on speaker acquisition (Vandersteen vs. OHM Walsh) @arturos73 I currently own the Vandersteen 2ce Sig II’s. In general I like them but there are things about them that I find frustrating. I do find them at times to be somewhat lacking in detail. Example: I am a drummer, when I put on a Police reco... | |
| Ownership and Review of a pair of Ohm Super Sound Cylinder I called Ohm on Wednesday and had a lovely chat with someone over there for about 20 minutes. I didnt know until the end of the conversation that it was John Strohbeen. I told him what I was looking for and my room dimensions and he recommended th... | |
| Ownership and Review of a pair of Ohm Super Sound Cylinder @bondmanp What amp and cables are you using with your 2000's? Also, do you know if Ohm does in-house demos since Brooklyn is not that far for me? | |
| Amp / Speaker combo ~5k My first post was here was similar to yours--looking for a system for around $5k. I was given a lot of excellent advice. I ended up choosing the Belles Aria Integrated and a pair of Vandersteen 1ci’s (both new). Which you could pick up for around ... | |

| Scoring on Used Thiels here @beetlemania I too am a Vandersteen 2Ce Sig II owner and have long wondered about the differences between them and the Thiel 2.4s. Could you please describe the pros and cons of each and which one you prefer?Thanks,Joe | |
| Recommend some Jazz to me Thanks all for the suggestions. Right this second I’m listening to Elvin Jones/Coalition and Poly-Currents via Tidal. Really enjoying them. I think bluesy41 hit the nail on the head in terms of what I was looking for i.e the cornerstone records of... | |
| Recommend some Jazz to me Yep, I have Emergency by TW. That stuff is pretty out there and I can only take it in small doses. I guess I'm looking to know what the seminole recordings of the swing era are. I know I can Google it, but I'm looking to find out which ones folks ... | |
| Vandersteen Seminar at Audio Connection (NJ) As an aside, I am a drummer as well, although I like to think of myself as "slightly" better than mediocre. When I’m not I.T.’ing things during the week, I play in two Top 40 club/wedding bands on the weekends.Cheers,Joe |
