| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III MrD, if I get hold of Eric Alexander I will make it brief and to the point. I can't go very deep into a conversation with him anyways because I don't qualify as an audiophile, I'm an audio enthusiast and I know it. I can't believe he answers the p... | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III Tomic601, it's all helpful !!MrD, this is unreal. You mention the Tekton DI's as a possibility for me. I had never heard of them until I happened upon a thread yesterday after my last post. Now I am really intrigued by them. They sound like a "too... | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III Hifiman55, Mrd.......I identify. | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III MrD, I'm with you brother. Didn't mean to infer I'm being told anything. I meant I'm not looking for anyone to make up my mind. That's my job. I'm just soaking up the knowledge, passion, and experience. | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III Mrdecibel, I understand what you're saying. I'm not trying to have the forum "tell" me what I like or don't like. It's an individual thing. But, it's all this collective conversation that sheds light on what I may or may not like and how to determ... | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III Hifiman55, too funny. I hear ya on the "jump in" part. When u said a Sig II 3a I thought I was already behind on new iterations. Speakers are sort of like cell phones, you can keep waiting for the next version forever and get nothing in the meanti... | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III Hifiman55, thanks for input. I'm curious, you said you have Sig 3a II's. I haven't seen a II designation in that model. Although there might be one at some point. This is wierd, but in the past week I have reached out to to a couple of Vandy owner... | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III Tomic601, as I'm reading your scheme of a VandyVan, I immediately conjured up a vision of a class A motorhome with quad slideouts and a full setup for auditions. All sponsored by RVandy of course. But then, but then, I came back to reality....Yes... | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III Schubert, I just picked up ur comments coming off the golf course here in northern California. It was a cool 75° today !! Sorry, can't imagine 9° except when I'm skiing. Well you've been around Klipsch enough. Interesting on the Forte being the ex... | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III Tomic601, I'm in the San Francisco south bay area. That's cool u chatted with the Man this am. Flashlight trick is smart helomech. So the woven mid cone is a big improvement mr_m. I'd hate to leave technology on the table with sight unseen speaker... | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III Yes, yes and yes....I would love to get K-horns and I have the room for it. BUT, it would totally turn the room into audio only (not a bad thing), no big screen, furniture issues, selfish?? Tomcarr, sound advice for sure. I'm going to ask a coupl... | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III Ozzy62, good info. Glad u like the Forte III's. I just can't buy without listening to both sets of speakers. Tomic601 has a solution to just buy both, do the A/B, then sell a set. What a long way around though. Sure miss the days of an Audio store... | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III Tomic601, "glare and fatigue", ya, I get it. I guess I want that pair of "do everything well" speakers. I like soft, low level music sometimes and then I get in the mood to really crank it up and feel the music. That's where I thought the Forte II... | |
| Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III Thanks for the above input. I currently have 1981 ADS L1230's. I imagine that they will compare more with the Vandy 3A Sigs than the Forte III's. And, if I go with the 3A's am I getting enough of an improvement over the ADS? I should mention that... | |
| Klipsch FII's with mods vs. FIII's Yup. Darn. I first saw La Scallas when I was a kid a loooong time ago. I love the Klipsch history, the story, US made, etc. Who knows, maybe some day it'll click. Gotta go with what your ears like. Thanks for the input. |
