Vandersteen has spikes and footers

Jeep is an acronym for General Purpose Vehicle....I have a Porsche with a "high end" Burmeister sound system..pretty crappy,  
Best speaker wiring
number 5 is the best  
RCA Victor records' quality
you might try cleaning them......RCA's sound good, even excellent to me....Mancini's Peter Gun, Bob and Ray Throw a Stereo Spectacular, etc.  
How does the VPI Aries II stand up to current mid priced tables?
I have a Superscoutmaster....when I changed to the super platter (all metal) it really opened up the sound.  There are 2 motors that oppose each other and put on a rim drive.  The table improved yet again...then mounted big brass cone feet under..... 
Audio Technica stylus upgrade
if you want to fiddle around with not much or little improvement if any go to it.  
Are AYON Amps popular in the high end community?
..I always buy from a manufacturer from US.....a much easier repair.  Surely sound is important, but US has great stuff.  
another rookie question - preamp or or power amp
Get both when you can ....from the same manufacturer....they will have been designed to work well together  
AirTight PC-1 supreme vs Dyn XV-1S
I suspect that it is a matter of "flavor".   
Martin Logan vs. Everything
See if you can find a dealer that sells Vandersteen speakers  
Need an amp upgrade suggestion..... But not the usual upgrade request :-)
find a Vandersteen dealer  
Attention Thiel CS3.7 owners
...also listen to Ayre electronics .....they walk in perfect balance between tube and transistor....also, great company  
Is my amp good enough?

WHY IS THERE SO MUCH HATE FOR THE HIGH END GEAR ON AUDIO GEAR?
people are usually partisan as to what they already have......they realize that their wallets are not fat enough.
