| Vandersteen 2CE Signature III — video review on YouTube by Steve Guttenberg (1/15/2023) tubular1 My pleasure! holmz does make a good point about bass If you want more bass then you need a sub or to move north of the Treos. My 2CEs have a lower bass extension than the Treos, but the Treo bass is BETTER. Tighter, cleaner, more ac... | |
| Vandersteen 2CE Signature III — video review on YouTube by Steve Guttenberg (1/15/2023) tubular1 I own the latest 2CE Sig III and auditioned the Treo CT at the time I was deciding, and since. Also the Quatro CT, and have spent time in front of the 7 with the top Vandy monoblocks (AMAZING system). All are listed as Editors’ Choices i... | |

| Absolute Sound's "Reviews" Sometimes, lately it seems more often, that they put up these "thumbnail" or capsule summary lite-reviews on their website, like the Totem. When I googled the article I got a link to a longer version, and the URLs vary slightly. Weird that they ma... | |
| How much should I spend on a new DAC If I was interested in an excellent standalone budget DAC, this would be the one that I would choose (or try, with their 30 day audition) which Steven Stone rates very highly. For more money, I would probably consider the Holo Spring 3 KTE, the De... | |
| Vandersteen 2CE Signature III — video review on YouTube by Steve Guttenberg (1/15/2023) durkn Hi— I would be curious to know which Larsens you listened to and what you did and didn’t like, if you care to share. I was mostly interested in the 6.2 and the 8.2 (the latest). From the reviews, they are supposed to be quite a different li... | |
| Qobuz Customer Service is impossible to reach :( @kgturner Re "What are you talking about? I can login to Qobuz on my browser, click my name in the upper right, drop down to settings. The literal second link under My Account settings is "Change my payment methods" It wasn't like that 8 or 10 ... | |

| Vandersteen 2CE Signature III — video review on YouTube by Steve Guttenberg (1/15/2023) Toe-in can certainly vary depending on the room, the distance between the speakers, and the throw to the listening position. I’m using more now than I did for a long time, based on the recommendation of somebody who’s set up a lot of Vandersteen s... | |

| Vandersteen 2CE Signature III — video review on YouTube by Steve Guttenberg (1/15/2023) Excerpt: "Note: I know people are sticklers for positioning and a proper listening experience means time should be taken to find the ideal axis to listen at and place the speakers in the room. While I did not have the OEM stands, I did, of course,... | |
| Qobuz Customer Service is impossible to reach :( Their CS sucks big time. I had a 30-day tried and then extended it, but had to cancel the credit card (due to fraud) that I had used on the account. They sent me a notice that my payment couldn't be processed. Easy-peasy, right? Add a new card in ... | |
| Vandersteen 2CE Signature III — video review on YouTube by Steve Guttenberg (1/15/2023) re: "Is it possible he reviews a lot of things but politely only publishes the ones he really likes?" Don’t know, but I would guess that manufacturers—knowing it’s a safe bet he won’t air anything too harshly critical (the closest he comes seems ... | |
| Vandersteen 2CE Signature III — video review on YouTube by Steve Guttenberg (1/15/2023) dayglow re: Never understood the need or interest for product validation or brand forums. Steve Guttenberg praises everything he reviews. I’m not that familiar with him, and had a friend send me this review. It seems that is his m.o. though. Som... |
