Sonic Impressions: Vandersteen 5 vs 5A


Ladies and Gentle'gons

I have heard the Vandersteen model 5's at length and am redy to commit long term to the speaker and the designer. I can (at a stretch) go for the upgraded model 5A's but no pair is within a reasonable distance to audition. Can those who have heard both speakers describe the sonics of the 5A using the 5s as a benchmark? Your time is much appreciated.

I've heard that the 5A's are quite a bit better. Even as good as the earlier 5's are.

I have a feeling it's mostly due to the genius behind the engineering marvels for the tweeter.

-IMO
