| VSA speaker owners What did you upgrade to? I think Alain wrote "never looked back", not "did not look back"...:)Now, I am not sure what you meant by I've been looking online, naturally, at Heperion, Proac, and tons of others, litterally.

On the other hand, I have yet to find one that is sharp as knife with audiophile recording and forgiving with bad stuff. One other option, just my two cents, is to buy... | |
| Very small bookshelf speakers / system - If she is under 35, IPod with Monitor Audio deck/speaker- If she is 35-55, a used Bose Wave Music will surely make her happy as her co-workers will likely be of those who will say "Wow, your husband got your a Bose system"- If she is 55-75, try ... | |
| Attn Vinyl lovers - what CD Player do you use? That is a real consensus and I bet we all believe our CDP is the most "analog" sounding one...excellent thread! I use McCormack UDP-1 original and guess what, it is as close to analog as it gets (kidding!). | |
