Give and Take

I got the VPI 2nd pivot and installed it today.....you might ask my impressions.....What I did notice was a strange metallic sound coming from the midrange speaker of my Vandersteen 5A.  They told me to remove it from the cabinet and send it to them, and they will rebuild it...so although the 2nd pivot is installed, I can't tell what it sounds like.

So rebuilding the mid-range speaker of Vandy 5a is part of regular scheduled maintenance after certain 'mileage'?

czarivey......stuff happens.....my other 5a is fine......one thing I should say.  A couple of years ago,  I had to send back the bass amp because of an electrical surge.  Perhaps that also affected the midrange.  I have nothing but compliments re: Vandersteen....his products and him personally.  When I moved from the wilds of New York to the desert of Arizona, Richard personally recalibrated/set up my old speakers in their new home...with a Thank You.
