. It is really hard to match/beat REL Acoustic or Vandersteen subwoofers if one is looking for musical truth and not just noisy BOOM. The huge advantage Vandersteen has is if one is using separates so that the Vandersteen subwoofer can be acquire its signal from being installed between the pre-amp and amplifier. This also removes the low frequency duties from the system amplifier so it sounds and preforms better also. I prefer subwoofer pairs so that the bass from each channel is handled specifically by its own drive/voice coil instead of it being blended between a single dual voice coil. Yes true bass frequencies are not directional or in what one would call true stereo, but in properly recorded music, the actual left and right bass tracks are NOT identical hence I prefer to have an actual left and right subwoofer. *iPhone* Media Room: ModWright Platinum Signature Transporter, VTL TL-6.5 Signature Pre-Amp, Ayre MX-R Mono's, VeraStarr 6.4SE 6-channel Amp, Vandersteen Speakers: Quatro Wood Mains, VCC-5 Reference Center, four VSM-1 Signatures, Video: Runco RS 900 CineWide AutoScope 2.35:1, Vandersteen V2W Subwoofer Living Room: Transporter, ADCOM GTP-870HD, Cinepro 3K6SE III Gold, Vandersteen Model 3A Signature, Two 2Wq subs, VCC-2, Two VSM-1 Office: Touch with Vandersteen VSM-1s Kitchen: Touch in-wall mount w/ Thiel Powerpoint 1.2s Bedroom: Squeezebox BOOM Bathroom: Squeezebox Radio Around the House: SliMP3, SB1, SB2, SB3 Ford Thunderbird: SB Touch, USB drive Ford Expedition: SB Touch, USB drive ------------------------------------------------------------------------ iPhone's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=13622 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=108865 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
