| Shahinian Obelisk vs VandersteenTreo @ja_zz For me, Hifi Shark is the best place to keep up with used offerings.That's where I saw the MX-R'sB | |
| Speaker audition recommendations? Hmmm, perhaps it will affect the subtleties(level controls) but not the overall sense of what a speaker does.I, too, auditioned Golden Ear and have to say I found them lacking. Hey, everyone's ears are different, but your post reminded me of what ... | |
| Magnepan 20.7's & Tube Amp @kalali,Funny, but I take the word of manufacturers before practitioners. First, they have more experience. Second, why would they lie?With regards to speaker cables, it just makes sense that a short run will be better than a long run, when you lo... | |
| Fix for Bluesound Node 2 and Powernode 2 wireless connection and drop-out problems... I use ethernet from my PC to my office rig and wireless to my main rig downstairs.I really can't say if there is a difference, as I never tried the reverse. What I can say is that is sounds pretty good despite being a wireless signal. This is usin... | |
| Vandersteen 2Wq subwoofers with M5-HP crossovers - help needed Yup, 2012 batteries are probably kaput. Don't they have the expiration year written on them? All the ones I have, have a date written in magic marker, so no question when to replace.B | |

| Bi Wiring for speakers question Buying 4 separate cables would be the best way, in my opinion.AQ cables are awesome. I too have the GO -4. Great value for the money.Is there a reason for using the banana's instead of spades?B | |
| Shahinian Obelisk vs VandersteenTreo I know that there were a pair of Ayre Monoblocks for sale in France last year with 220 volt, so they are out there. B | |
| Speaker Upgrade I bought Ctsooner's Treo's and am a Vandy fanb.....A Vandy fan, too.Your Yamaha should have more than enough power for a pair of VLR's or 1ci's. With a sub, you should be good to go, though I always suggest a Vandersteen 2w or 2wq sub.Though you m... | |
| Best Speakers with a DNA-1? Also remember that buying the most recent issue of the Vandersteen line is best, as Mr. V. constantly upgrades models as they are produced.B | |
| Best Speakers with a DNA-1? Steve McCormack still upgrades the McCormack line. In fact, if you can find a broken DNA, he will upgrade it to your specs at a very reasonable price.He made my DNA-1 monoblocks last year. They sound superb.Regarding the Vandies, I suggest contact... | |
| Fix for Bluesound Node 2 and Powernode 2 wireless connection and drop-out problems... I went with a Netgear wireless transformer that allowed me to use a 5ghz connection instead of 2.5. Much less traffic on that band and no signal dropouts.\B | |
| Rythmik subwoofer Maggies also do well with Vandersteen subs. They are a bit more, but integrate well and are built like tanks. My 2w's must be almost 30 years old and still work.B | |
| Upgraded to Tidal today @whitestix ,Now isn't it nice not to have to get up and change the record?Just kidding...In any case, Tidal does offer HQ sound, but I feel their catalog inferior to Spotify. Unfortunately, Spotify isn't offering HQ streaming. It isn't bad, but ju... |
