Vandersteen Quatro CT


This speaker has been available for several months and by some reports is quite special. Anyone have a chance to listen to one? Impressions compared to other Vandy speakers?

Thanks!

I've owned various Vandys for the last 30 or so years.  Every pair reproduced music rather than "hifi".  RV has always gotten it, it's just that over the years he has refined his basic transducer concept to make his newer offerings all the more musically satisfying.

I've heard other speaker brands produce fine sounding "hifi" and enjoyed listening through them.  When I get home, it's just the music again. Kudos to Richard for understanding from the beginning but also for never resting on the laurels of his latest offerings.  Imagine what new Vandys might sound like in a decade!
I've had three different Vandersteen pairs in my main rig.  Started the hifi journey with a pair of 2ci's in the early 90's, then went to a pair of kit speakers (North Creek), then to a 5A's (which were the only Vandy's I could never get to sound right), to Legacy Focus SE (which were pretty great) and then to Quatro Wood's Sigs.  Have to say that the Quatro Woods are my favorite and I plan to keep throwing music at them for many years.
