If you buy the Forte through Amazon, try to verify consecutive serial numbers. Some online buyers have received non-matching pairs of Klipsch heritage speakers but the box labels state which speakers are to be sold together. Their drivers and veneers are matched from the factory so it does matter.
Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III

The Forte III can be ordered through Amazon, and the 3A Sigs can be bought through Music Direct. Both have liberal return policies, though MD does require buyers to pay return shipping. Nothing better than an in-home audition. I believe most Vandy dealers will throw in the stands for free. ;-) If you buy the Forte through Amazon, try to verify consecutive serial numbers.

Tomic601, as I'm reading your scheme of a VandyVan, I immediately conjured up a vision of a class A motorhome with quad slideouts and a full setup for auditions. All sponsored by RVandy of course. But then, but then, I came back to reality....Yes, retirement is better. San Diego may be in the cards for an audition. Helomech, I've looked on Amazon but haven't dealt with Music Direct. Heck, return shipping would be less time and travel money. Gawdbless, never auditioned Focals. I'm not chasing nirvana, I just want to get it "mostly" right. Thanks to you all for chatting with me. Really nice to get honest input and suggestions. This may take a while but I'll update when I get things sorted out. |
If your still deciding. My Audio/HT system is Vandy 3A Signature II's for the mains and Klipsch Reference series for center, surrounds and sub. |
