| Sellers and "Ambiguity" or "Integrity" of "item as described" descriptions on eBay I am surprised, they give me concierge service.All my calls are here in the US, and they went out of their way to help with a difficult seller.Send me a PM, maybe I can get you the number.Bob | |
| Dog Proof Speaker Stands For Harbeth SHL5Plus Speakers @nycjlee,dogs like toiI'd be hesitant getting wooden stands. Dogs like to chew.At least Sound Anchors are metal (thick steel). If you fill them with lead shot, they'd be almost unmovable.Bob | |

| What order? Sound panels/acoustic treatment first. IMHO.B | |
| Dog Proof Speaker Stands For Harbeth SHL5Plus Speakers How about Sound Anchors. They have a number of different models and could probably make something that would work.Have you considered mounting them from the walls?B | |

| 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 | |
| What are some of the downsides of owning a Magneplanar .7 or 1.7i ? Maggies are like Porsche 911s or Lotus Super 7sEnter your text ...i.e. toys for very limited usage on clear and flat roads. That's why I got an Audi. Quattro is a 'good thing'. | |
| What are some of the downsides of owning a Magneplanar .7 or 1.7i ? @johnnyb53 I agree, you have a keeper (for a wife).Despite being a Vandersteen Fanboy, I also respect the Maggie's. If I had more room, I would get a pair, too. Bob | |
| Initial impressions of my new Vandersteen Quatro's in Audi Havana Black @ctsooner Are the speakers still in the same room that I saw when I bought the Treo's?If so, you mentioned that they are now closer to the walls.
