| Ownership and Review of a pair of Ohm Super Sound Cylinder @bondmanp What amp and cables are you using with your 2000's? Also, do you know if Ohm does in-house demos since Brooklyn is not that far for me? | |
| Amp / Speaker combo ~5k My first post was here was similar to yours--looking for a system for around $5k. I was given a lot of excellent advice. I ended up choosing the Belles Aria Integrated and a pair of Vandersteen 1ci’s (both new). Which you could pick up for around ... | |

| Scoring on Used Thiels here @beetlemania I too am a Vandersteen 2Ce Sig II owner and have long wondered about the differences between them and the Thiel 2.4s. Could you please describe the pros and cons of each and which one you prefer?Thanks,Joe | |
| Recommend some Jazz to me Thanks all for the suggestions. Right this second I’m listening to Elvin Jones/Coalition and Poly-Currents via Tidal. Really enjoying them. I think bluesy41 hit the nail on the head in terms of what I was looking for i.e the cornerstone records of... | |

| Vandersteen Seminar at Audio Connection (NJ) As an aside, I am a drummer as well, although I like to think of myself as "slightly" better than mediocre. When I’m not I.T.’ing things during the week, I play in two Top 40 club/wedding bands on the weekends.Cheers,Joe | |

| Vandersteen Seminar at Audio Connection (NJ) @cedargrover That's crazy man!!! Glad you dug it as much as I did. I would say that $600 - $800 is what I'm looking to spend so I will def. keep your recommendation in mind. I'm curious to see if any other Agonners were present at AudioConnection ... | |

I was the one that requested some 'Dan' music and Nick came up with The Nightfly. I was in the center seat, front row and i think my brain melted after hearing t... | |
| Vandersteen Treo Speaker Cable Suggestions I'm running AQ GO-4 in my system with Vandersteen 2ce Sig II's and the Belles Aria integrated amp. I don't have anything else to compare it to but they sound great. Expensive though!!! | |
| wet blankets, CSNY and what a difference a DAC makes @gdnrbob Funny you should bring that up. I was on the phone today with Johnny R. and David Belles and we confirmed you can run a sub on the Belles Aria by connecting a high pass filter to the MON OUT and MON IN jacks. I don't know, however, if thi... |
