Vandersteen Treo CT
I'm so sorry that I'm late to the party. lol.  Former Treo owner and now Quatro owner.  Someone awesome purchased my Cherry Treo's.  I LOVED them....Happy with the Quatro's in my set up, but those Treo's are amazing and the CT version is very very... 
beryllium vs diamond
Troy, all we see posted about the Digm's are excuses and blaming other components.  I have looked at your posts on them for years now.I heard them at the first stop of their North American tour here in CT with a Krell system and disliked them a lo...

smodtactical141 posts07-15-2019 12:58am@ctsooner those carbon tweeters on the Vandys look extremely appealing. You make it sound like they have the detail of a magico but the ease of a Wilson ? To my ears, as well as many I know, the Vandersteen’s... 
beryllium vs diamond
Smod, if you read this thread fully, we are taking bout a few other materials.  I have personally enjoyed the Vandersteen Quatro CT's for awhile now.  As we have mentioned, it's all about implementation.  A great designer can get any of these to s... 
Proac D48R
Those Proacs can scale.  I've heard them a few times with all different electronics and cabling.  Personally, I love the AQ stuff as it's just so neutral.  I've seen dealers showing them with cables that are a bit unbalanced to MY ears and it tips... 
Speaker advice for listening to Blues music
The Vandy's many have mentioned will give you a full range that you crave, very natural highs and it is about as musical as most any speaker I've listened to in all their price ranges.  I listen to a ton of gear, but again, these are only our pers... 
Speakers to hang on to for LIFE
True.  I still own Vandy's.  Moved up from Treo to Quatro CT's....best move I've made.  If I had owned the Tree CT's, I'd have gotten his new Sub 3's (a pair).   
Speakers better than Revel Salon 2
The only problem I ever have with teh Legacy's are their tipped up high end.  I like the Revels better, but that's my ear.  I'm a Vandy owner and don't like a tipped up tweeter.  I love the Tidal speakers, but have always heard them in a perfect s... 
Building a 27hz single fold horn for a two way horn system.
Teh new Audioquest speaker wires are the most neutral I've ever heard.  I've heard many of the very expensive wires out there 
Speakers better than Revel Salon 2
They are a nice speaker.  I liked the Vandersteen Quatro's better and got those instead.  Loved the Revel dealer though, lol.  
Speaker advice for listening to Blues music
I love these threads.  we all post about speakers we own or want to own.  Anything Vandersteen...There I got mine out there.Seriously, if a speaker is a good speaker, it's going to play anything well. There is no special speaker that is best for o... 
Speakers to hang on to for LIFE
wow, blast from the past.....Funny as I read my last posts and I had just gotten the Treo's....I'm move up to the Quatro CT's in Audi Havana Black.  Look as great as they sound.   
Calling all Vandersteen Fans
Sorry to hear as you want everyone to be happy with their systems.  Wish Johnny had a shot at seeing what was up.  I know the magic he's done in my room with both teh Treo's and then Quatro's.....good luck going forward. 
Speakers under $5000 maintained a reputation for quality sound over the last 15 years.
I personally don't buy anything because of its name.  I didn't even like many of the brands that I know love.  Many reason's for this from changed hearing to knowing different dealers to brands upgrading and changing sound signature.You can throw ... 
Proac D48R
Vandersteen and a few others are the only ones I know of who voice their speakers with grills on. I have Vandy Quatro's and the grills have never been off of them and never will be as long as I own them. lol.  I kind of like that part. I have owne...
