Vandersteen Quatro CT

Vandersteen is a prince in his treating of his customers.   I bought my Vandersteen 5A's in New Jersey (at Audio Connection..absolutely the best in retail audio...knows everything and is very fair)....moved to Arizona, and when Richard V. found out about it, he personally took charge and set up my speakers in my new home.   Just recently I thought I cooked 2 of my drivers...sent them to Vandersteen who returned them (one needed repair, one didn't).  Wonderful support and care.

Besides excellent sound quality, I finally took the Vandersteen plunge after all these years. A large part of my consideration for them was their excellent customer care and their longevity in the industry. We are all aware of buying what was thought to be great products only to have the manufacturer go belly up in 3 to 4 years. Any repair or advice disappears not to mention resale value goes down the toilet. Not to many manufacturers will have the "main man" on line when you have a problem or need service. That's what Richard Vandersteen does.....

@stringreen I bought my Treo CTs from John Rutan at Audio Connection as well. He can really talk audio and knows all about Vandersteen's line.  He correctly predicted that I would likely be unhappy with the speaker cables I had been using with my 3A Signatures.  It took me a while to come around to it but he was right. After upgrading to the silver Clear Day's I'm finally realizing all that the Treo CTs are capable of.

Phil,
Do you feel the Clear Day speaker cables are better than Audioquest's Rocket 88's?

Tim,

I have no experience with any of the Rocket series cables. So I just don’t know. The Earth series cables i had been using (Volcano for Mid/Treble and Caldera for Bass) served me well for a long time. The mid bass once I got the Treo CTs was too thick and heavy thus obscuring details in the mid/treble that I wanted to hear. The Clear Days solved that problem for me.
