| Anthem Statement P5 amp and Golden Ear Triton One speakers I know many people adore the Golden Ear, but in my experience I felt I could do better.If you can, go to a dealer (and there seems to be a lot) and listen to them and judge for yourself before you make a purchase. Unfortunately, I have no experien... | |
| Zu Druid & Definition Roundup FWIW-I connected Atma-Sphere MA1 v3.3 and MP-3 to a pair of Zu Union’s and was favorably impressed. I also had them connected to a pair of Vandersteen 2W subs using the M5-HP crossovers.The Unions were upgraded with ClarityCaps last year, too.B | |
| subwoofer to speaker connection Why not try out what you have and see if it makes a difference before you make your next move? | |
| Any Vandersteen 7 Owners in SFO Bay Area ? CT, from what I heard from Pat at McCormack, the Western states seem to have more problems with voltage fluctuations than we do on the East coast.How much longer till you get your speakers and amp back?Bob | |

| break in I will admit to being skeptical of the 'break in' belief, but I can say that it is true.Everything from speakers to cables to high pass filters changed from the time I connected them.I will also say that each time I noticed a change, it was for th... | |
| subwoofer to speaker connection If you can use them as monoblocks, then yes, it would be an upgrade.Possibly less so if you want to drive upper and lower frequencies separately.One of the best things about monoblocks is that you can put the amps close to the speakers. Thus, usin... | |
| Speakers for electronic/hiphop/rnb [$4000 range]? @OP,I know how you feel, but it is good to listen to speakers out of your price range. That way you will know what can be accomplished in a 'perfect world'. Take that knowledge and find a speaker in your price range that accomplishes the task most... | |
| Looking to build a system for under $5k I am glad you went with the Vandies.(Being a Vandy Fanboy), and glad you met with Johnny. He is a great dealer and human being.The Belles is great. I am surprised he didn't connect the Ayre amps.I know you are on a budget, but if you can score a B... | |
| A speaker that looks like a driver or a driver that looks like a speaker? Did anyone look at the other models?They are 'different'. I wonder what style room they were thinking they would look good in. Hopefully, they sound nice.B | |
| Need Wireless Subwoofer Options Whoohoo!I was worrying about the signal not being synced with the loudspeakers, but you seem to have no problem with that. Great.B | |
| I've decided to try Tubes Leonard, What is the frequency? What is the frequency? What is the frequency? | |
| In need of some advice on a matching a sub Well, the crossovers should cut off frequencies so that the sub and speakers aren't generating the same signal at the same volume. This should eliminate the tonal differences you are wary of.It's sort of like your speakers which have crossovers to... | |
| Speakers for electronic/hiphop/rnb [$4000 range]? @mrdecibel -Great advice! I can see why some people think speakers are for one genre or another, but for me, a well made speaker will play any type of music properly.As greg mentions, music should be played at normal levels. I really don't like li... | |
| subwoofer to speaker connection Looking at the Luna manual:https://www.manualslib.com/manual/1141221/Audio-Physic-Luna.html?page=10#manualI see you can connect the sub with speaker cables (in parallel with your speakers), and use the subs controls to adjust crossover frequencies... |
