Come on people....BASS!
I have encountered self made millionaires who were absolute boneheads in grammar, math, history, etc. back in high school. Go figure........ 
$3000 Speaker Search
bassdude2,I have not heard Wavetouch speakers, so I can't comment on their sound. But looking at the reviews, they look like they're from mostly a bunch of "no-names, as far as reviewers go. Other then getting a heads up on a product, I am very re... 
What was the first system you heard that made you think the high end made sense
At a cousin's home. 1969. He had a Marantz 2230 receiver, KLH 6 speakers, and a Garrard TT with Shure cart. The clarity and bass really caught my ear. I loved music but wasn't quite to audiophile status back then. 
Dedicated Red Book CD player vs. "Universal" type players....
The newest Bryston CD player may be a viable choice. This is a true, one box, Redbook Cd player that does nothing else. No DVD, SACD. The Dac cannot be accessed for computer audio or streaming. A true one trick pony.

I've seen college kids text using no caps or punctuation of any kind except maybe, a period along with many mis-spelled words. But then my grammar is far from perfect. 
Biwire Cables for Vandersteen 2CE Signatures
I have heard that a true bi-wire run, (two pairs) of  Audioquest GO-4 speaker cable are absolute killer for Vandersteens.

How 'bout basse? 
GoldenEar vs Dynaudio vs Nola vs ProAc vs Everything else.
Vandersteen. 
Dealers hijacking the discussions
Dave. Just look at the last few posts of yours. You just bloviate on, and on, and on......I love brick and mortar stores, and I have never been in yours. But just reading this thread alone, makes me want to stay away from your store. By the way, I... 
Best DAC for my situation...Read on!
I'm currently using a Bluesound Node 2 connected to a Ayre CODEX with a glass optical cable by Wireworld and it  sounds better than the usb to me. 
Vandersteens, PSB or something else?
Realism? Magnepans? More like pleasant, euphonic colorations. Realistic presentation? Hardly.....A sub IS exactly what a Maggie needs.
