Vandy quatro vs Vandy 5’s

TD,

Well then, I'm making the same point if the Quattro ever had to be serviced. It IS something to think about for the future if either were purchased.

Happy now?

service is identical and with both models
modular construction easy to service

Your point is?????
5's are as good or better than Sophia 1's?????
I didn't hear what the 3A Sigs and 2Wq's were capable of ?????
The 5's are much better than the combo I had?????

Your a dealer and must defend a product you carry!!!!!!????
You're still pissed off because I suggested an Ear pre over an Aesthetix Calypso to someone ????

I never said the 5's weren't any good I just think the Sophia 1's are a choice to consider at that price especially if someone likes dynamics and inner detail!!!

One other thing you might keep in mind: if you go with the 5's, you do have an upgrade path (though admittedly not a cheap one) to 5a status should funds and tastes dictate that in the future. If you go with the Quatros, you pretty much have them (not that that is a bad thing by any stretch) for the duration. At least that's the situation today -- Richard could always spin up a Quatro Series II someday.

Full disclosure: I have 5a's and love 'em.

Happy listening,

If you get the Quattros, you will be thinking about the 5s, but not the other way around.
