| Vandersteen Quatro CT The Pass is a fine amp for the Quatro's. I personally like the Ayre Ref amp better as there is a ton of synergy, but that's me. I own the same integrated, AX5/TWenty, and it will sound a spec better after about 15 minutes or so, but I won't leave... | |
| Add a Subwoofer to my Vandersteen 1ce s or replace with Revel Concerta2 F36 Agree with jafant. Listen to the subtle dynamics. Listen to the sibilance (John Mellencamp stuff is good here). Listen not just to amount of bass, but also the quality of each note. Which gives you a real sound stage. Does the sound stage stay... | |
| Add a Subwoofer to my Vandersteen 1ce s or replace with Revel Concerta2 F36 Interesting thread. Fan boy here too. Quatro's shipping in a few days. Very familiar with all the speakers mentioned here. I can tell you that if you like the Vandersteen's mids and highs, that once home and over time, you will be looking for ... | |
| Vandersteen Quatro CT First off Jay, thanks for the album tip. Streaming it on Tidal now. Sounds great. I do like Clark Terry.Before I get to Tom, I am PUMPED beyond all belief. They should be done by the end of the week and I bet it will only take about a week to ... | |
| Vandersteen 5 / Quatro Owners--anyone adding a third sub? Old thread, but using two more Vandersteen subs can be a great thing. You can set up an arrayed system. Even Richard has talked bout doing this. Said as long as it's set up properly, you can smooth out any nodes etc... If you have the subs stil... | |
| Any Vandersteen 7 Owners in SFO Bay Area ? Dead on about Asian distribution.Sad about Avalon. I used to love their speakers, but with the new company it's just changed a lot. They lost most of their US dealers because they won't support them with ads or anything. One former dealer told m... | |
| Streaming Tidal through Bluesound Node 2 vs Oppo 105D Yes, the Codex is a special DAC and to my ear is better than all the DAC's under 7k I've heard and I've heard many of them. Personally, if someone is trying to get the best sound quality out of their system, they shouldn't be using the preamp in ... | |
| Streaming Tidal through Bluesound Node 2 vs Oppo 105D Bob, it's all good. The only reason a dealer would be upset is if you demo with them and buy elsewhere new. Johnny just wants you to love your system. HE's there for you I"m sure. | |
| Vandersteen Quatro CT LOL...spoke with Johnny at Audio Connections. We are setting up the install time. Ayre shipped my AX5 back after installing the cross over so I'll have that here sometime early next weeks. | |
| Any suggestions for a good speaker match for Naim Proacs and Vandersteen are outstanding with the Naim amps. It just depends on what you like in a speaker. | |
| Streaming Tidal through Bluesound Node 2 vs Oppo 105D Bob, that's awesome on the Codex. I know that you loved it when you auditioned it at Johnny's. Did he tell you when it will be in? I"m surprised as i know he has one in stock. I'm sure that if you want it today, he'd let you have that one as he... | |
| Why does bi-amping speakers sound better? Vig, just saw this thread. One question for you. Have you spoken to your dealer about your situation? It sounds to me that for the money, you may want to consider newer speakers first rather than sink money into new electronics. Eventually doi... | |
| Best standalone music server? I love Neil's products and he's a great guy to work with. Melco makes the best sounding NAS in the world and they you can easily hook up any optical drive to it to rip. It has the built in software to do so and it's a versatile unit. Can be st... | |
| The best speaker you ever heard? And the Vandersteen Quatro's are just about dialed in at the factory. Been on the phone with Johnny Rutan at Audio Connection all morning and setting up the install date. I can not wait. The more speakers I audition, the more I appreciate the V... | |
| Vandersteen Quatro CT got the call last night that my Quatro's are being dialed in and should ship any day now. |
