| Vandersteen Amp? Totally agree. He also brought in a top amp designer on this 15k set of monoblocks. He knows how to make music, that's for sure. | |
| Speakers costing range of 2500-3500 per pair speakerpeeper2 posts01-27-2018 11:47amI vote for a pair of speakers hand crafted by Fritz Heiler. Why pay to support a large company's glitz and overhead when you could be using your purchasing power to get the same top of the line drivers used in... | |
| Speaker Upgrade What changes they have made. I was blown away when listening to their newest stuff a few years ago. That's when I got the Treo's and now teh Quatro's. I was a Pro ac guy for years. I have loved many speakers over the years, but tonality, no sm... | |
| Best Speakers with a DNA-1? I still say Vandersteen 2's need to be on your short list. I use to hang out at a dealer adn he had them paired wiht McCormack all the time. Just so musical. So many options in that price range. Thats' why I am always amazed at how Vandersteen... | |
| Upgrade for Totem Mani 2 A pair of Vandersteen 2's are in the 2500 range if I recall correctly. The fact that they are time and phase correct will stop the smearing that you will get with a non time and phase aligned speaker. It's very noticeable on acoustic music and a... | |
| Suitable affordable speakers for Cary Cad 805AE I've heard those with the Vandersteen 1's and 2's (both well within your range) and they were rocked by your amp. It's a really sweet amp and pairs nicely with Steen's. You can find plenty of happy owners of both on AG I'm sure. Very strong pai... | |
| Speakers costing range of 2500-3500 per pair I have to say that I too like the Vandersteen 2's with an integrated. I have heard them driven by NAD or Emotive or Rotel or Yamaha's and they always deliver. They will sound better and better with much more expensive gear adn to me, that's the ... | |
| Speaker Upgrade Most of the Elac's are very good for the price. If you can find a pair of Vandersteen 1's you may want to check them out also. | |
| Upgrade for Totem Mani 2 What is your price range? Type of music listened to most often? Keep in mind it's not always efficiency of a speaker. It's how they work wiht said amp. That Pass amp is plenty powerful to rock some top good speakers. It's mostly class A if I r... | |
| Vandersteen Amp? just noticed this thread. Hope you got a chance to listen to the amps. All my friends who own the 7's have ended up getting them except for one, lol. I'm now waiting on the new smaller mono blocks he's coming out with. Heard they will crush the... | |
| Still looking for speakers in the 10-20,000 range I just got a pair of the Vandersteen Quatro CT's and was able to have them painted in any color I wanted. I chose Audi Havana Black. Had the electrician drop in a 4" LED Daylight can above each one yesterday and man are they awesome. So much met... | |
| Disappointed w/ Klipsch Heresy III. Now what? Agree on the Quicksilvers. Mike has made great amps for many many years. I"ve owned a bunch of his gear and loved every piece. Built very well too. I had a buddy who had the Heresy's and used Quicksilver amp and pre amp and LOVED them more tha... | |
| Budget American made speakers? I'd say the Vandersteen or Maggies would be a great start. Both have outstanding pedigree's and will be around for years and years. The Vandy's just get the music right. | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Video's only on Brittany right? | |
| Absolute top tier DAC for standard res Redbook CD Great observations Matt. Thanks for doing that. I hope that we can also get the HRS footers to see if the extra price also means better sound. Sometimes, as well know, it actually does, but not always. What often looks like the same materials ... |
