Bad experience with Bluesound Soundbar's
Sorry to hear this. I bought their Nodes used and they provided decent help- not stellar- but decent/good.I am pretty sure none of the earlier models supported Dual Band Wifi.(In fact, I had to get a Netgear router to achieve a 5ghz network capabi... 
Vandersteen Model 1 or Focal 726
+3 for adding a sub (or 2).You'll be getting even better bass than a 3.And, you will retain the small footprint of the 1's and have the ability to move the subs to where they can fit/work best.Bob 
HAVE ALL SALES STOPPED ON AUDIOGON ???
@stereo5 ,That sound like the same guy who was selling a pair of Vandy's a few years ago. They, too, took years to sell. ( and, a custom paint job, too).B

Question about hum from speakers
Since no one has said so, I would contact SMc Audio directly.Pat or Steve (McCormack) can give you the best information. If necessary, they can either repair or upgrade the amp. They can also tell you if the seller sold you a defective amp.B

AQ Firebird vs Hurricane Power Cord Comparo

Dual vs single sub
One question concerning 4 subs-How are they connected to the amp?Stacked spades/bananas?Seems like a lot of hardware to me.B 
Question about streamer to "serve" 2 systems
How about some Bluesound Node’s?I use them to connect my office (2nd floor) to my main system (LR 1st floor).They use wireless connections. The newest model can utilize the 5ghz band. (But, added a Netgear adapter to-utilize the 5ghz network-to my...
