Green Mountain Audio Chroma HX Review
Yes, opinions are just that.  I get that and it's what makes forums function.The only problem I have with your post is that you can't have an opinion, without basing it in fact.  To say that something sounds better to you than something else, you ... 
Bi-amp through receiver vs pre out to 2 channel for fronts
Totally agree String.  yes, a very good single amp is best.  If folks want a wonderful integrated that sounds much bigger and better than it's cost, look at the Belles line.  They are making some of the best sounding amps in their respective price... 
Green Mountain Audio Chroma HX Review
I'm sure they are great speakers, but you can't make statements that none of those other speakers can deliver what the GM can.  That's just silly. We all like different things.  Which models of each have you recently heard?  Price ranges or just a... 
What speakers work well against a wall
Lot's of them are good for the wall as you can see. What is your system?  Price?  If this is a general question, then I too love the Vandersteen's.  Their new carbon fiber tweeter is taking them to the next level for sure.  I have some Linn's in t...

Thanks are starting to burn in and now.  Dynamic as heck. I'll be asking AQ to make a cord for my Quatros. Yes, the difference it makes is the low end dynamics.  it does make a difference.  I'll get the Tornado's also for them. That's all they need.

No, that didn't read well on the sound part, sorry.  Yes, I have the blue outer sleeves. I wonder why they changed them.  I love the plugs. They are the nicest I've ever seen adn that includes the top Furetech or Oyides.

changed?  How?  I just got mine a bit over a week ago. I wonder if I have the these or not.  I doubt that the sound has changed at all. 
Which material sounds better for speakers construction? Wood, Ply or MDF?
Actually aluminum is fairly inexpensive in the scheme of things.  It's how it's implemented and tooled that adds any expense.  Vandersteen had it right IMHO years ago when he went 'baffle less'.  It still works in todays market, but many don't lov... 
What is the best USED Speaker Under $10,000
Another thread had a poster get a used pair of Vandersteen Quatro CT's for under 10k and he is in love.  Said set up was fairly easy and he loves his system again.  Happy for him.  So many top choices here since it's often the sweet spot of folks ... 
New Speakers up to $15k - The more I read the less I know!
Awesome to hear.  Just glad you got a pair of speaker that you love.  I feel the same way, but others like the B&W better.  That's the fun of audio and boards.  If you need advice on pairings of amps or sources in the future, ask away, lol.  I...

Someone used concrete years ago for a small cabinet.  Forget who.  It may have a resonance that doesn't work. Can be measured of course. 
Best Rocking Speakers 15K and Under
twoleftears750 posts08-02-2018 1:40pm@ctsooner Point taken. But all I can say is that hearing Mahler/large symphony orchestra in full hue and cry on the Harbeths produced the most lifelike sound, from the point of view of scale and sheer majesty,...

Great share Charger.  Very cool stuff and I totally agree. I nearly pulled the trigger on the nice Basis arm when I owned my Basis, but couldn't find one used that fit, lol.  I am in shock over how good these cords are.

Bob, I disliked their former power cords.  I also don't like MOST cords on the market.  These and Enkleins are the one ones I've heard that I love.  I was told that the Elrod's are also special, but even with any discounts they are very expensive.   
Audioquest custom made triple weave design power cable (Storm Series).
Bob, those are incredible and for the price, it's a no brainer.  I have heard all of them on a $250k plus system and then a system that costs less than mine does.  It didn't matter as the cables made very audible differences.  Bob, call Johnny and...
