| Anyone try a SUB THREE from Vandersteen yet? I, too, own a pair of Treo's (non CT) with a pair of 2wq subs. I love this pairing and am reluctant to change it.Though, I can see the temptation of getting a pair of Sub 3.As I have been waiting for an Ayre KXR to come to the used market, and not... | |
| Spotify or Pandora @bifwynne Yes, you should get a separate DAC. If you want something inexpensive, get a Bluesound Node. It has great connectivity with other apps and you can buy a better DAC, should you want to.I use the Bluesound with an Ayre Codex, and I think i... | |
| Internet radio "only" Bluesound Node is a very economical and well designed package.The integrated DAC is not bad either.B | |
| Atma Sphere deserves praise @tomic601 ,Those Vandies will sing with Atma. I have my Treo's with a pair of MA-1's and an MP-3. One of the best purchases I have ever made.Bob | |
| Speakers under $5000 maintained a reputation for quality sound over the last 15 years. Vandersteen +2Magnepan, Shahinian, Quad, ProAc are a few others.B | |
| My experience after lost of 20k$ I concur with mgattmch.I am sorry you have not had a good experience with PC/digital. But, I can assure you there are better ways to stream music.B | |
| Customer Service in High-End Audio I have had mostly positive experiences with dealers and manufacturers.I would say if any company has poor customer service, I would avoid them.B | |
| Speaker Help @dpm2340 ,The Vandy subs work with crossovers-M5-hp or fixed impedance, they allow the amp to run more efficiently as well as offer a seamless transition between the main speakers and subs.I own both a pair of 2w and 2wq's. I don't think you will ... | |
| Speaker Help Perhaps a pair of Vandersteen VLR's and 2wq subs. That is, if you like the Vandy sound- Small footprint and not hard on the wallet. Even a pair of 1ci's and 2wq subs would be a pretty sweet speaker system.B | |
| Core Power Technologies How do you contact Mark's grandson?B | |
| Deleted Threads by Admin?? @cleeds Well put. Faith by its very nature stands on its own It reminds me of a question put to Joseph Campbell, when asked if he believed in a personal God. Barney Fife Principle of "Nip it in the Bud." Ahh, memories...Hopefully, this doesn't... | |
| Has anyone tried these stunning new CPT power cord? Call me a fool (and, many have), but I think there has never been an attempt to steal from those who bought CPT products. CPT had a great reputation with the Equi-Core.At worst, it was poor management/over-optimistic hopes. Poor health certainly d... | |
| Core Power Technologies I am a little disappointed with the way things have turned out.Mark, to his credit, did ship what I ordered, but I wanted the Deep Cores, and returned the Equi Core 300's for credit.I probably should have kept them.Oh well, hindsight is 20/20.Hope... | |
| Laufer Teknik Memory Player 64 - I've Finally Found What I've Been Looking For! @willgolf, I know someone who might be interested. PM me.@sumo and OP,I just put in an order for a Mini. Sam is getting it ready.Bob | |
| Suggestions for Modifying/Upgrading my system I would try to visit as many dealers as I could and audition speakers.Like, m-db said, I think you could do better speaker wise.I own a pair of DNA-1 monoblocks-just upgraded by SMcAudio, as well as a RLD-1. They worked very well with Vandersteen ... |
