Vandy 3A Sigs ARE NOT rolled off in the highs as claimed above. They produce a very natural timbre for acoustic instruments compared to many/most "high-end" speakers which are fatiguing to listen to because the treble is simply too hot. If you want a natural treble, the 3A Sigs will deliver it in spades. If you want artificial audiophile detail, then go elsewhere.
Audio Physic Scorpio or Vandersteen Signature 3A
Hi,
I am interested in buying either Audio Physic Scorpios or Vanderstaeen Signature 3A's. I am familiar with (and fond of) the AP signature sound. I love the dynamic punch of AP speakers along with the pinpoint imaging, crystal clear midrange they provide on well-recorded material. Some say AP's are too bright but I really like that crisp detailed treble.
I auditioned the 3A's yesterday and was pretty impressed with the natural box-free sound and deep bass they provide. They really do sound wonderful and so natural. That said, the 3A's did not have the high frequency treble extension I was hoping for. The dealer, who was a really great guy, explained that some tweaks can will make the top end of the Vandersteens sing. Does anyone have thoughts on these 2 speakers? I have ARC LS26 preamp, Spectron Musician 3 sig Amp, Resolution Audio CDP.
Thanks,
