| SSM Super Platter help please If you still have the cones, they don't work too well with the rim drive. As you adjust the cones, they get wobbly. In order to get it right, you need the mini feet. These are easily adjustable, so that you can get the large drive wheel in a band ... | |
| Questions for Vandersteen 5A owners... Vandersteen 7's from Richard himself. New cabinet, new crossover, new midrange and tweeter, new amps....some of the improvements can be incorporated into the 5A's giving about 80% of the 7's. The look is different...no upper grill assembly. The sp... | |
| Questions for Vandersteen 5A owners... ..if you have 40,000 dollars to spend, the Vandersteen 7's are coming. | |
| Need cable advice SNS et al. You are right that you must audition cables in your own system. There is nothing I've tried that's worse than Cardas in my system. ..and so it goes. It closed down the highs, diminished the dynamics, put lots of grain into the system..y... | |
| Questions for Vandersteen 5A owners... Mtdking et al... I think dealers really TRY to set up speakers and turntables, but they really can't spend the time to do it really right. If you follow Vandersteen's very time consuming, but very accurate setup directions, you'll win. Even more c... | |
| Aesthetix/Ayre recomended signal-/speakercables. I have an all Ayre system, and Anti-Cables are a very synergistic match with my Vandersteen's. They are really worth a try...have a money back guarantee. I have tried Kimber and Purist, and like Anti-Cables better in my system. Cables are very sys... | |
| What's the Best LP You Bought in 2008 I thought I was the only Dido liker...the electronic tricks in the recording are very interesting...give it a try. | |
| Benz Ruby vs Ebony Call Musical Surroundings and get their opinion since they are intimately familiar with both. Report back what they say...that should be interesting. | |
| Von Schweikert VR5SE / Aerial 20T V2 ? Soooooo much depends on the rest of the system. The 5A's reproduce what the other components send to it. There aren't many speakers better than the 5A's at any price. | |
| Questions for Vandersteen 5A owners... I am using Vandersteen 5A's with Ayre components...very synergistic coupling. I have pinpoint imaging...left to right, and front to back. I noticed that it was good however became very much better when I upgraded the power cords to the amp and pre... | |
| Need cable advice I have posted the answer many times to Audiogon. I strongly suggest you look at Anti-Cables. I can not recommend them highly enough. They are inexpensive, but are at the cutting edge. They have a money back guarantee. | |
| Periphery Ring Clamp & Cartridge Compatibility? I experience this when the VTA was too low on my Benz LP/VPI. With proper setup, there is occasional slight scraping on records with a high edge, but once the music begins, it's fine. | |
| If I like sound of Ayre Integrated I would Like... I wouldn't mind if they put all plastic parts in Ayre components. They all sound wonderful and that's what I am paying for. | |
| speaker cable connectors for Vandy5As/Ayre 5vxe Why Shouldn't he?? | |
| Newbie Analog High Expectations?? You just might be disappointed. It depends on the quality of your CD player. If the CD player is not the cutting edge, than the turntable might be better. I have an Ayre CD player which can be more musical than my Superscoutmaster. |
