Will they easily fill the room and does the soundstage extend vertically above the speakers (they are shorter thanthe others I am considering)?

Vandersteen 5As certainly have great reviews. How sensitive are they to placement? Close to front walls?

>>03-22-08: TvadHard to believe, but adding a sub (or two) to monitors has a substantial effect on increased image height and size. Quite amazing, actually...<<Should I cancel the sale?:):) Are you saying that a recording of content (e...

>>03-22-08: PsacanliSure you could change to bigger louder speakers, but, if I were you I'd experiment with subwoofers to provide the sound you want. Your speakers are fabulous,very hard to beat at what they do, but were designed to be used ... 
Coincident Total Reference = any thoughts
How about the availability of parts for the discontinued model? How is Coincident Customer Service/Customer Relations for items not bought from them? 
Coincident Total Reference = any thoughts
It must certainly be disturbing for purchasers of the TR to find that an essential component of the speaker, the midrange driver (of which there are 4) is not manufactured any longer, and the manufacturer has nothing listed on his website about th...

Having spoken to some people whom I greatly respect, I have added the Coincident line to my final few as well as Duke's Jazz Module; I would look for a Total Eclipse, but they are not available on A'gon, but the Total Reference is. Zu Defintions r...

Now that I've sold the Kharmas (25 offers in first 12 hours and I was expecting a month or two wait..........first firm offer to buy disappeared into thin air - that really pisses me off, so second buyer, a real gent, gets them), the serious searc...

>>03-18-08: MustagefanThe perfect speaker for is the LS9 by AV123 it is 8ohm.<<I just spoke to AV123. It hasn't even been assembled yet, although the GR Research model is available in kit form. So, not exactly ready to buy!!

Fair comment, Macrojack. 
Which speakers will fill 5,000 cubic ft coherently
So now I am looking at speakers that look great (WAF), have a small footprint, have 13 0hm impedance and can stand 6-12" from the wall - Selah Audio Alexandrite. Long build-time, but who's in a rush? Any comments?

>>3-19-08 Tvad: I'm interested to know how you or Ralph are determining that the Woodmere speakers have a benign impedance curve since the minimum impedance spec of the Woodmere is not published on the Tyler webpage. Ty only publishes the no...

Appropos your comments about Ralph, Tvad, I have spoken to him today and he confirms his generalisation that 8 ohm impedances are better for all tube amps; however, he believes that he should re-state his assertion, since it is taken too literally...
