| Initial impressions of my new Vandersteen Quatro's in Audi Havana Black @mr_m Yes, I know, I was just being sarcastic.But, sometimes, I think we are chasing our tails looking for the 'ultimate' upgrade and forget that we are so far ahead sound-wise, and forget how fortunate we are.Bob | |

| Sellers and "Ambiguity" or "Integrity" of "item as described" descriptions on eBay What kind of cable was it? It must be something that could be replicated.B | |
| Dac: Does anyhting beat the Schiit Gungnir Multibit (Gumby) in the same price range? @abramsmatch A very nice and thoughtful review. Thank You.Bob | |

It must be the best buy of the decade.The only other comparably priced DAC is the Schiit Gungnir of Yggy, both... | |
| Initial impressions of my new Vandersteen Quatro's in Audi Havana Black I can attest to ctsooner's woodworking ability. He knows his stuff.@ctsooner I would definitely wait on cable upgrades and let you cables do their magic. As Tomic posted, sometimes you can get too much of a good thing.Bob |
