| Balanced vs RCA between amp/preamp @shannere +1. | |
| Vandersteen Treo CT Ctsooner isn't kidding about the cabinetry of Vandy speakers, and, I can vouch for his wood working abilities, too.I just got an Ayre KX-R (non Twenty) and wanted to say how great it sounds. It is replacing an AtmaSphere MP-3 for the time being.I ... | |
| Speaker Recommendations - from Vandersteen 5As Weekends are probably best for me. It sure would be nice to put a face to everyone's name. @bigkidz ,Can you bring some of your equipment, too? Like your DAC?Bob | |
| Vandersteen Treo CT My non-CT Treo's seem to have a soundstage starting at the speaker and going to the rear wall behind them.My listening spot is almost in front of the left speaker, but I still get a full soundstage.B | |
| Harbeth M30.2 40th Anniversary Edition Speakers for the US. Why not contact Harbeth?B | |

| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? @calloway ,I would be glad to oblige.The Deep Cores are supposed to be inserted before the Equi Cores.So, I will do just that, and let you know.B | |
| Speaker Recommendations - from Vandersteen 5As @kren0006,Thanks for posting.I will keep an eye out for Spendor.Bob | |
| Speaker Recommendations - from Vandersteen 5As @bigkidz .I looked at your system, but see you are using your own (hand built) equipment, and since I don't know how it sounds, it is something I can't comment upon.- Though I would sure be interested in listening to it.😉I never heard of the NY ... | |

| Looking for a good full range floor stander As the OP has amps that offer 600 wpc., I think speaker efficiency will not be a limiting factor unless the speaker has a nasty impedance dip.Most here on Audiogon know of my love for Vandersteen- which Audiotroy doesn't carry. The Quatros's and a... |
