| Vandersteen 5A or Sonus Faber Stradivari Homage I had my low frequency level sat to 0 and contour to about 6.5 | |
| Vandersteen 5A or Sonus Faber Stradivari Homage John talked me through using the volt meter by putting the positive lead on the positve speaker terminal lead and negative on the other. Then using the test CD he found my amp impedence on tracks 27 and 30. I do't even know how he figured it out. ... | |
| Vandersteen 5A or Sonus Faber Stradivari Homage You bet he was able.The man knows what he is talking about!! Filters were set wrong and I did not use the Volt meter to test proper impedance. The Levinson manual said 50k, when in reality the volt meter showed 75k. Just that alone with some room ... | |
| Vandersteen 5A or Sonus Faber Stradivari Homage John, how about 3:30 your time tomorrow? | |
| Vandersteen 5A or Sonus Faber Stradivari Homage I am very concerned over the plopping/distorted sound coming from the subwoofers with certain music, especially punchy music. I am actually very surprised that a speaker costing this much, with supposedly fantastic bass does this. What in the worl... | |
| Vandersteen 5A or Sonus Faber Stradivari Homage Wow, that is very nice of you. i would like to call you. I do have a volt meter and sound level meter. When can I call you? | |
| Vandersteen 5A or Sonus Faber Stradivari Homage I purchased them used from a reputable dealer. they are 5 years old in like new condition. Batteries were changed 2 months ago. I used the chart to tilt them and installed the cones finger tight. I installed the filters and my Levinson mono blocks... | |
| Vandersteen 5A or Sonus Faber Stradivari Homage Thanks again for all the responses. I unpacked and wired the 5A's last night, but did not have time to do any adjusting. I will say, without the necessary setting up, I was not impressed. I sure hope the set up and fine tuning is that important, o... | |
| Vandersteen 5A or Sonus Faber Stradivari Homage Thanks again for the responses. My 5A's are on their way. I should have them in a couple of days. I can't wait!! My dedicated room is 17.5 x 26 long. I have high hopes on what they can do. I just recently sold SF Cremona m's and Maggie 3.7's, and ... | |
| Vandersteen 5A or Sonus Faber Stradivari Homage Thanks for your responses. I am using Mark Levinson 434 monoblocks. They are only 125 watts but double with each halving of impedance, they are not like the ratings show. I was wondering however, if more power would be needed to make the 5A shine.... | |
| Vandersteen 5A or Sonus Faber Stradivari Homage Thanks very much for your responses. I kind of think the Vandersteens are the way to go too. It is also cheaper than the Stradivari, and does go deeper. There is one concern I do have with the Vandersteen 5a, however. I tend to play my music loud ... |
