| Are these hooked up right? The speakers appear to be connected correctly, using the jumpers and not bi-wiring. Perhaps they are not connected to the FR and FL outputs of the pre-pro?Tom | |

| What should I hear as my amp breaks in? +1 @mitch2 Unlike others here I've only owned a few amps over 40+ years in this hobby (Pioneer, Denon, PS Audio, NAD, Krell and currently Vincent). I agree w mitch2 that I've also only heard small improvements in SQ as the hours add up. IME mine a... | |

| Filling speaker Stands? I still am curious why no one mentions the use of BBs? | |
| Filling speaker Stands? Does anyone know why lead shot is always mentioned, but not BBs? | |
| Bi-amp through receiver vs pre out to 2 channel for fronts I believe it is Richard Vandersteen (Vandersteen Audio) and Jim Smith (Get Better Sound) who both recommend a single good amp.Tom | |
| Bi-amp through receiver vs pre out to 2 channel for fronts I think I read that another poster here (whitecamaross?) went so far as to say that there are NO multi-channel amps that sound as good as a 2-ch amp, even from the same manufacturer.Tom | |

| Bi-amp through receiver vs pre out to 2 channel for fronts Very welcome, OP. No, I didn't post and remove. Also, I read somewhere that it's better to use a single good amp bi-wired than two mediocre amps bi-amped.Tom | |
| Vandersteen 1 repair. Another Vandy fanboy here. Currently own the 2Cs. Another vote for stick w Vandy drivers. No mistakes that way.Tom | |
| Bi-amp through receiver vs pre out to 2 channel for fronts Good question OP. Others will chime in with much better answers than mine, but I have been told when bi-amping use identical amps. Tom | |
| Seeking informed advice on speaker acquisition (Vandersteen vs. OHM Walsh) OP- I'm using Primacoustic room treatment purchased from Sweetwater. Bigger difference than anything else I've done. | |
| Best sounding "budget" integrated amp for Vandersteen 2C. Another vote for the NAD 326BEE. TMR has one listed now for $364. |
