‘modern’, ‘mainstream’ speakers—too many models converging towards too similar a sound Wow, what a thread. I really am enjoying this. I agree with much of what is said and disagree with some. I've become a Vandersteen fan for the sound. I didn't even like them until I auditioned them about 6 years ago now. I felt the same way a... | |
Big speakers in small room at moderate volume levels I have owned the Treo's and now have the Quatro's. The Treo CT would be great in a room like yours. They are highly dynamic and easy to drive, especially the way you listen to music. I didn't feel they were that heavy. My wife lives the tapere... | |
Quatro Wood setup help Thanks SOOO much. My crossover is built into the Ayre AX5/20. I know they worked with Richard to figure out what they needed to do. Rutan came to set up and did a great job. Took a bit, but was fun to watch. He has them in the corners of the r... | |
Quatro Wood setup help I wish I was better at set up. Good ears, but I've always been a poor set up person, lol. Jim, do you have yours in the corner of the room? | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Sold my server that Steve Nugent built. Ran on a Hynes SR5 highly modified by Steve. Great unit. The buyer, a great guy, drove up to pick it up. He listened to my system for an hour or so. He was shocked at how good it sounded. He was particu... | |
Paradigm Persona series I have a friend who sells the Luxman gear and loves it for the right situation (just like anything, it has to be matched properly). I still own an old Luxman tuner (70's). I enjoyed the separates when in Japan years ago. | |
Vandersteen VLR Wood ..any love for these? good info to know Bob, thanks for sharing. I wish he had a powered version as that's what I'm thinking about doing for my bedroom system. I have my Linn Kiko system up for sale, but I'm not sure I should sell it as it really does do everhtign fro... | |
Quatro Wood setup help All dealers are different. I paid Johnny $500 to come 2.25 hours with one helper to unbox, set up and tune my system. They were here for at least 5 hours as they were meticulous in setting up the bass in a tough tough room. I'll have a buddy co... | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Jh901- i agree. I have a Shunyata Denali for my front end rack and run my amps direct into the wall. I use all Shunyata Sigma PC except from Denali to Preamp. I use an Enklein DAVID for that. It’s amaizng. My room uses the top level DTX-D-NCF Furu... | |
Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Yes there is a lot of great digital out here now and it’s getting better as we go. So many great options. There is no 1 best. All depends on what we have for a system and how we listen. When I installed the new Hurricane cords to my system the SQ ... | |
Vandersteen VLR Wood ..any love for these? I can't wait to hear the CT's. I wonder how much of a difference there will be. I"m sure it will be huge, but we are lucky as he makes such great speakers that even other models sound great still and ar ea value. I've gone to listen to a lot of ... | |
Quatro Wood best feet I went to a local countertop shop and they are epoxying two 1.5 pieces together to give me a pencil edge on top, polished piece in the right custom size. I paid $280 or something like that total (that included tax). I will go with a big friend w... | |
Quatro Wood best feet thanks so much. Yes, Rutan (NJ Dealer) just told me that 3" is fine. I thought that's what Richard originally told me to get. I'm excited. | |
