| Harbeth 40.2 or Vandersteen Quatro CT @karmapolice , Though I understand you desire to look into new speakers, I think your happiness with Harbeth should be something that keeps you from pursuing change-at least until you can find a dealer who will allow you to audition the Vandy's at... | |
| John Rutan / Audio Connection @joey54 , @dougthebiker,It just goes to show you that when you treat people poorly, they remember. That Johnny resurrected the business shows what a class act he is.B | |

| Harbeth 40.2 or Vandersteen Quatro CT @twoleftears ,+1Though I am an unabashed Vandy fan, I think the only way to know for sure is to audition them in your home alongside the Harbeth.It is money well spend, and should 'scratch your itch'.Bob | |
| Working with Audio Salesmen @OP,I would be annoyed at your dealer's behaviour.If he helped you put the system together, he should have given you a heads up on when the equipment would be arriving, and if there were to be delays, at least let you know as soon as he/she did.An... | |
| Benchmark DAC 3B Vs. Schiit Gungnir Multibit and a question. @OP,Richard, I would definitely let it burn in. In fact, just leave it on.The folks at Ayre recommended doing the same with the Codex, despite it running pretty warm. They said it doesn't 'hurt' it and helps with sound quality.B | |
| Women who enjoy quality speakers @OP,Great Post!I mean it.As a kid from the Projects, I wasn't exposed to the finer things in life.Going to an Ivy League college exposed me to things I could not afford, but still lusted for. My parents chastised me for being so gullible.After col... | |

| Stupid Power Conditioner question but... I think the OP did say he/she had a whole house surge protector in place. already. If so, I think any downstream surge protection would be superfluous.IMHO, putting an amp behind a surge protector that is not a whole house one is a potential way t... | |
| Stupid Power Conditioner question but... @OP+1. The whole house surge protector is the best way to safeguard against power surges, not only for your stereo equipment, but your computers, as well.@erik_squires @jea48 ,Always great advice.Bob | |
| Speaker Cables and Connectors I have no experience with Focal's, but I think it would help if you described the rest of your system.A lot depends upon that information as to what will work for you.B | |
| High end Class D amps? I am no EE, but Ralph's explanation is clear to me.How another member cannot accept this is beyond me.Bob | |
