I had the Scorpios and they lasted about a month in my system. I upgraded to Focal 1037's. I thought the Scorpios would really shine but they were very thin sounding, bright to the least. Their woofers look great but were NOT as good as they look when it comes to sound. My amp was a BATVK300x. I have owned a Musician II in the past and that is one good amp! I would look at others before deciding on Scorpios. Your amp can pretty much push anything .......That's my opinion ..........
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,
