| System for a teenager "Albert":Getting a tube amp for a teenager to use, especially with Vandersteen 2s??? I don't know about that. I think that's like committing suicide if you ask me. His old man??? Well.... that's a different story. If this kid is anything like I wa... | |
| Feedback/Suggestions on some of my choices Cnoel:Like "Elevick", I also like your taste in equipment. Your system sound strikingly similar to mine, only mines is anchored by an audio/video receiver (a Harman/Kardon AVR-210) instead of a separate pre/pro and amp setup like your setup is. I ... | |

| Recommendation for REALLY inexpensive receiver Jarujammer:I am with the others here as well. I would go with the Outlaw as my first choice, and then if that doesn't quite do it for you, then I would look at an Onkyo SR600 (if that's the right model number of their current $600.00 audio/video r... | |

| And What Did You Get Your Wife For Christmas? Well........ I don't have a wife yet, but I do have a fiance, if that qualifies. What I am going to get her for christmas is a DVD player (though it would be something along the lines of my Toshiba SD-2700, as opposed to my Pioneer Elite DV-37)(wh... | |
| Recommendations for a nice direct view set "Makofkalaw":Sony sets are VERY nice, but I also think that they are WAY overpriced. In my humble opinion, I think that Panasonic and Toshiba tend to give you more set for your money (peformance, picture quality, connections, and features). Take t... | |
| Power amp recommendations for 1000 and under "Krazeeyk":Nice choice when you say that you are "looking" into getting an Adcom GFP-750 Preamplifier. Nice piece if you ask me. I own one myself, and so far, I haven't been nothing but happy with mine. And if you were born in the 1970's, then tha... | |

| Biggest Sound in the Littliest Box "3chihuahuas":Perhaps, you might want to check out my fourteen year old KEF Reference 102's. The 102 (which is how I am going to refer to them from here on out) is a small bookshelf two way monitor with a 6 1/2" mid bass driver with 1" tweeter. It... | |
| Vandersteen 5 vs Model 2c/2wq Combo "Matchstickman", "Sdcampbell" and "Maxgain":So far, this is proving to be a VERY informative board for Vandersteen fans (such as myself), and present and past Vandersteen fans alike. I am liking what I am reading so far. I am finding this forum to... |
