| New Speaker Conundrum - Vandy's, Spendors, Salk, Ascend - Mainstream or ID Thanks @mr_m. Cannot wait. I am going to say it again - this thread has been super helpful to me. | |
| New Speaker Conundrum - Vandy's, Spendors, Salk, Ascend - Mainstream or ID Thanks @bigkidz - I was thinking about that option but just fell in love with the CT in the Quatros. | |
| New Speaker Conundrum - Vandy's, Spendors, Salk, Ascend - Mainstream or ID @kuppe38 - apologies I meant John Rutan of Audio Connection in Verona, NJ. | |
| New Speaker Conundrum - Vandy's, Spendors, Salk, Ascend - Mainstream or ID Thanks @kuppe38. Johnny has been through pretty much all my hifi journey so far except for the tektons- so made a lot of sense to me to have him help me out. Not saying audiodoctor is not awesome but the amount of times Johnny has been over to my ... | |
| New Speaker Conundrum - Vandy's, Spendors, Salk, Ascend - Mainstream or ID @ebm :) - all set - put in the order yesterday. | |
| New Speaker Conundrum - Vandy's, Spendors, Salk, Ascend - Mainstream or ID Thank you so much @revrob @tomic601 - I am going with basic black to match with the rest of my gear and the rest of the room. Thanks again. | |
| New Speaker Conundrum - Vandy's, Spendors, Salk, Ascend - Mainstream or ID Thank you so much for the Canton suggestion @revrob.@jdal - I had not considered Bache Audio.I did visit JohnnyR@audioconnection today. Had an extended listening session with his Quatro CTs - mostly played through Gilmour (Live at Pompeii) given t... | |
| New Speaker Conundrum - Vandy's, Spendors, Salk, Ascend - Mainstream or ID @dep14 - thank you so much for the detailed explanation - it just made things a little harder for me in a very good way :). I have to agree with you on the Tektons - they are fast/dynamic - however I have a feeling as I age I am looking for someth... | |
| New Speaker Conundrum - Vandy's, Spendors, Salk, Ascend - Mainstream or ID I think this thread has some great suggestions and I hope it helps others as much as it is helping me. Thank you all. | |
| New Speaker Conundrum - Vandy's, Spendors, Salk, Ascend - Mainstream or ID @twoleftears my worry with that is buying without auditioning. I did try that with my Tektons but not sure I want to do that again. Though I only hear good things about Salks. | |
| New Speaker Conundrum - Vandy's, Spendors, Salk, Ascend - Mainstream or ID @gdnrbob2 Quatro's is looking very tempting tbh as a long term option. | |
| New Speaker Conundrum - Vandy's, Spendors, Salk, Ascend - Mainstream or ID Thanks @tomic601 - the quatros are more than likely going to end up on my list :).Thanks @milpai - current list as I see it would be Vandy, ProAc, Ascend, Salk in that order and I am adding the Focal 1038Be to the list as well.Thanks @dtrandall - ... | |
| New Speaker Conundrum - Vandy's, Spendors, Salk, Ascend - Mainstream or ID Thanks thecarpathian - I actually dropped Ascend a note to confirm upgrade options (including the RAAL). | |
| New Speaker Conundrum - Vandy's, Spendors, Salk, Ascend - Mainstream or ID Thanks twoleftears and revrob,revrob - I will add Canton to my list - was not tracking this German brand. At this point I might pivot slightly to the ProAcs/Vandys. I will keep Spendor, Cantons and Salks (in that order) as my fall back - as I cann... | |
| New Speaker Conundrum - Vandy's, Spendors, Salk, Ascend - Mainstream or ID donvito - I did not see any but will ask. I was interested in the D48r as an option to the Treo CT but I have only auditioned the Treos/Quatros.Thank you. |
