Biwire Cables for Vandersteen 2CE Signatures @tomic601 - thanks for the clarification. Who are RV and Low? | |

Biwire Cables for Vandersteen 2CE Signatures @cedargrover - Audioadvisor will construct a pair of Type 8 biwires for $400, which seems reasonable. | |

Help/advice with next upgrade By the way, did you mean to say that you have a vandersteen 2WQ SUBWOOFER??? | |

Upgrade path from Wilson WattPuppy 7s? - seeking advice I heard the WP7's run with the Lamm ML2 triode at only 18 watts and thought the sound was outstanding. I would consider trying different amplifiers. | |
Sound via laptop vs phone vs tablet @crwindy let us know if that app helps you. I take Digital from my iPhone and iPad by running lightening out through apple camera conversion USB adapter and then through a powered hub. Does not sound bad, but have not compared it to a PC source. |
