Vandersteen TREO CT's with Pass Labs XA60.8

I had an XA 30.8 hoooked up to my Quatros for almost a year. It sounded very impressive, with glorious midrange and top to bottom excellent presentation. However, in comparison to the 60.8s, it was somewhat deficient in the center image and didn’t have the same balls-out drive and bass slam, even with the powered subs.

That is kinda the route I thought I would take. Want to hear that Pass Labs “house” sound through the TREO’s, but just do not have the cash for a couple 60.8’s....right now. 

Great to know that the 30.8 can handle the Vandy’s though. TREO’s don’t have that powered bass though. I do still think it will sound damn good in my small room though. 

The old audiophile adage that "you can't have too much power" has a great deal of truth to it.

I dont think the XA30.8 leaves class A at 60w, rather at 30W.

while i am a big big fan of Vandersteen powered bass, Treo properly setup will shock ya...
