Here is what I think. A pair of 7 costs about $28K more than a pair of 5A. Is the 7 "better" than the 5A? That can only be answered by you because at this level, "better" usually comes down to what you like "better". But if I were in your position, I would rather invest the $28K in room treatment. In a acoustically sound room, even cheap speakers can sound like high-end.
Vandersteen 5Aa Carbon--any 5a owner's opinions?
I'm new to 5as, having my pair since only 23 April. They're absolutely the best-sounding speakers I've ever heard, and I'm thrilled to have them.
But I understand that some of us V'steenists have raved about the 7's superior transparency, etc. The 5a Carbons use the 7's MR driver and (I think) a better tweeter than the 5a. Has anyone heard them?
