| Initial impressions of my new Vandersteen Quatro's in Audi Havana Black @ ctsooner,I’m running my Quatro Woods with MIT Shotgun S3.3 Bi-wire speaker cables and AQ Panther IC’s from my OPPO BDP-95 to a Pass Labs Aleph 3 amp.The Panthers are running 100vdc DBS which makes them sweeter, more open and tightens up the bass... | |
| How do I remove the woofer from ads 300 speaker? Try finding a machine screw that has the same diameter of the flange opening screw holes. Use that as a jacking screw.I use this method on my Alon woofers and it works great, won’t bend the driver frame or damage the wood. | |
| Initial impressions of my new Vandersteen Quatro's in Audi Havana Black @ gdnrbob,As RV himself told me in an e-mail concerning my used pair of Quatro Woods that are long out of warranty, "You bought them, you own them". I really don’t think he would be opposed to using the fuses but like I said, if your pair are unde... | |

| RCA connectors-how to tighten them up. On the AQ Sky, one can unscrew the silver end cap over the RCA barrel and there you will find a very small screw that can be tightened to increase pressure on the outer RCA connectors(flaps). Or, one can take a small jewelers flat blade screw driv... | |
| Have you ever tried a pair of speakers and said this Is the last thing I will ever need. I have been an Alon/Nola guy since '94 and also dabbled with other speakers when I explored 300B SE playback namely the Cabasse Ferella 401 and a few bookshelf models, those being Fried and NHT but mainly stuck with the Alon/Nola's over the years.... | |

| Your first component that was "special" That would be a pair of Fried Beta Signature series satellite speakers with a Fried "The Subwoofer" back in 85. At that time they were a true revelation compared to what I was using and a major step into this crazy hobby for me. I still have them ... |
