| Vandersteen help needed @audiotroy, He can buy a Codex used for $1,300.Or, a 2w sub for $400. The fixed crossover is $200 or so.I would second tomic's post. Let Johnny do his magic.Bob | |
| D'Agostino vs. Ayre @tomic601 Sorry for not responding, but I am in my busy season. I really am a gardener. I have don't have the CT Treo's, just the plain vanilla ones (from ctsooner). Moving from my DNA-1 with gold upgrades/RLD-1 to the Atma MA-1/MP-3 was like ha... | |
| Looking For Neutral Tube Amp Recommendation Definitely Atma's. One of the best purchases I ever made.Bob | |
| Subwoofer hummmmmm See!What did I say?Bob | |
| Golden ear sub x Considering that my 2nd hand 2w's are almost 20 years old and are still working properly- I wouldn't worry about needing the warranty.I also own the HSU VTF-2 subs. They are a nice product, but not in the league of the Vandersteen's.Bob | |

| Vandersteen Quatro Wood II? I would suggest contacting Mr. V directly. He will return your call personally and can give you the most accurate response.Though I am a Vandy fanboy, I don't understand why Vandersteen doesn't keep records of their upgrades connected to serial nu... | |
| Subwoofer hummmmmm I am glad to hear Mr. V contacted you quickly. He really provides great service.As far as the hum goes, it may be your electrical wiring. Something isn't grounding properly.Perhaps Almarg will chime in. He knows more about such things than I.Much ... | |
| Golden ear sub x A Vandy 2w or 2wq would be my choice. Used, you might be able to get a pair of 2w's and the M5-HP crossovers within your budget. Or, you could just get the proper fixed crossovers for your amp's impedance through a Vandy Dealer for a couple hundre... | |
| Subwoofer hummmmmm Why not call Vandersteen and get it from the designer's mouth?Mr. V. usually calls back the next day.Bob | |

| Amps Atma-Sphere M-60 Mono blocks OTL design Ralph, I am still awed by what your amp and preamp can do.After growing up on tubes, I never thought I would return to them, but, you did it.Bob | |
