Subwoofer for classical music listener @4hannons ,If you do run cable under a rug, route it such that it will not be trod upon. Walking on cable can wear down the insulation on the cable and give you other problems.As far as a cable, I believe Almarg recommended this for me a while ago... | |
Initial impressions of my new Vandersteen Quatro's in Audi Havana Black @ctsooner I don't have to see your gear, I know it is maintained perfectly.Now, off to your pics!Bob | |
Blue sound Node 2 vs Lumin D1 I own the Bluesound Node (1), and output to my Schiit Gungnir or Ayre Codex.I am essentially using the Bluesound for its' wireless connectivity and I have to say it works like a charm.The Node 2 is a better unit-DACwise. I would recommend you try ... | |
Balanced v unbalanced input to Ayre preamps And, it is so nice not to have to worry about buying expensive balanced interconnects.Bob | |
Initial impressions of my new Vandersteen Quatro's in Audi Havana Black Are any other members noticing a long blue script over the OP's tag?I use Google Chrome, and I noticed this started happening a couple of month's ago to posters ID. I thought it was something Audiogon was doing, but I am not sure.Bob | |

Recommended Speaker List for Atma-Sphere OTL Amplifiers. I played a pair of Zu Union speakers with my MA-1's/MP-3, the results were incredible. They came close to my Vandy Treo's.I don't have the M-60's but wonder if a pair of Zero's would allow you to use them with the Treo's?In any case, Ralph makes a... | |
watchout for another Dali MS5 scam I think this is the same guy who listed Vandersteen Quatro's for $1k. The listing was removed after I sent an inquiry. | |
Subwoofer for classical music listener So, rvpiano, are you going to get some Vandy 2wq's? | |
Bluesound vault 2 - load songs other than ripping from cd? +1 williewonka,Bluesound responds very quickly to queries.Bob | |
901 series 2 speakers Yup, there are better choices, but I still remember the 301's. They weren't great, but they did have a nice diffuse presentation. I listened to a dorm mates system and liked them. I lusted for 901's, but then Shahanian, Ohm, Maggie pulled me away.... | |
Subwoofer for classical music listener A pair of Vandersteen 2wq's would be my recommendation, though a pair of 2w's would probably be as good.B | |
Too many tube amps @stereo5 Ouch!Fried a pair of Vandies? Heck, I would have take a sledgehammer to it.B |
