Would Vandersteen 5a's be a good match for Krell?

Though I am a very happy Thiel CS6 owner, my best audiophile friend has the 5as and I have spent many evenings luxuriating in the sonic bliss of these also-time- and-phase-coherent speakers. They certainly would be my other first choice.

I have decided to upgrade my front end first. I have chosen Aesthetix IO Signature for my pre-phono. Hell maybe with that much of an upgrade I may not need to upgrade the speakers. I'll keep you informed. THIS IS FOR ALL WHO READ THIS THREAD. THERE ARE DEALERS OUT THERE WILLING TO GIVE A DISCOUNT. SO IF YOU PAY FULL PRICE FOR ANYTHING FIND A NEW DEALER !!!!!!

Good news everyone. If you are looking to buy these speakers new. Go to Acoustic Sounds web site.

With all due respect, what am I missing here. I just came
from the AS website. Is the great news that they sell 5A's.

Just a personal reason that I have.
