Yep, the Vandersteen Model 2 & 3 are not pretty (the Model 5 & 7 are a little nicer looking) but then with Vandersteens one is paying for their sound and not their looks - in other words no 1/2" thick aircraft grade aluminum front panels or 27 layers of hand sanded clear varnish finish on some exotic wood with these speakers. But they do sound wonderful! ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ralphpnj's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10827 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=97753 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
