Vandersteen 5A to Carbons??

Restrained about what? It was a poorly worded ad and he explained. I thank him for doing so, but it was very misleading. AC should probably put someone else in charge of placing Agon ads.

What's interesting is that the premier Vandersteen dealer would say this about a pair of speakers someone traded in:

"still have not heard a speaker set valued up to $10K that I like better! Terrific Detail, focus, Sound stage, etc."

I guess you say whatever you have to say to move used merchandise out the door.....

Ad by Audio Connection for a pair of used Metaphor 2 loudspeakers. The description was in the ad copy. I guess they think these are better than the 2ci, Quattro, Treo, etc...

Just seems funny to me.

And so it goes.....right over your head.

Never mind, I see there is no way for you to get it.

Now back to our regularly scheduled love fest......

I have no feelings one way or the other. I know the newer Vandersteens are head and shoulders above the older models, which are the only ones I have heard. Model 1 through 3A have never impressed me. The Model 5 was pretty good when I heard it at HI-FI 96 in NYC. I look forward to someday hearing the Treos and Quattros.

So that's my story and I'm sticking to it........

I intend to do just that in the future. Right now I am extremely happy with my Grand Veenas and I realize it would cost a lot of money to better them. Money I just don't have at the moment. So maybe I am blissfully ignorant. But I would like to hear the newer Vandys at some point.
