One other interesting design quality of the Vandy's is that they are engineered specifically for true bi-wire configuration.
Richards comments concerning this - http://www.vandersteen.com/pages/Answr7.htm When I received the speakers I tried both configs' (bi-wire,single wire) The speaker cable I use for bi-wire are 2 pair Guerilla 4' silver push-pull with rhodium spades. For single wire it was 1 pair of the 4' Guerilla with 2" jumpers constructed of the same wire/spade. To be honest...(let me duck for cover here) the bi-wire config brought the speakers to the level I enjoy now. Single wire config (w/jumper) was um... less 3 dimensional, less musical...sort of closed. No dbt..too difficult to achieve efficiently, I suppose. Although the difference was apparent enough. As I am fairly new to this level of home audio, feel free to take my comments with a grain of salt. ok, go easy on this neophyte. Bottoms up! . -- haunyack Transporter -> B&K R200.2 -> Vandersteen 3A Signature. (Listening room) SB3 (RWA analog) -> Rotel RB1070 -> B&W Matrix 805. (Bedroom) Fridgidare -> Mirror Pond pale ale -> easy chair w/remote -> irritated neighbors. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ haunyack's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=9721 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38593 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
