Vandersteen Model 7: has anyone heard?


I won't have $45K to spend on a loudspeaker in this lifetime or any other I imagine but the little snippet in TAS peaked my curiousity. Has anyone heard this speaker and would be willing to offer their impressions?

(((I wonder if these speakers would sound good with solid state electronics.))
We broke the Vandersteeen 7s in with a 1200 dollar NAD Solid state power amp sounding superb.
The first couple nights i was there till 2 am running through music totally engaged..

Hello Ian
I was breaking in the Vandersteen 7s for a few days with the new NAD 275 BEE Stereo power amplifier ($1199) power amp and played Black Label society's latest cd track 6 Zakk Wylde guitar cranked and the room was rocken..... Alice in Chains(would)cranked up also sounded amazing. REMs live Cd track 2 or 3s bass line and singing was sick.

Had Black lable society rocken with an NAD amp while the
Sevans were breaking in like a live event.
Alice in chains bass line was insane the who Live at leads alblum Happy Jack will make you happy when you hear Kieth Moon's drum work.
Muddy Watters the Folk singer Big legged womans and Good morning little school girl never heard better.
yes I am a Vandy dealer but also like this music myself
What I hear is ((less speaker and more music)).
