Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

I think that is the point!

Vandys DO sound like music. That, I think is what you are considering detail, and in that context you are dead on! They just don't convey softer sounds. I always liken capacitors to sound sponges. The Candy crossovers allow good rendering of tone, impressively good, but they, IMO, don't convey reverberations and such as well as other speakers. At this point I have sufficiently explained what I mean, so if you have not heard better, you'll just disagree, what else could you do, I'd do the same...

In fact for years I wanted to like Thiels, but never could figure out why folks were crazy about them. They always sounded OKAY to me, but only okay. Then one day I heard some Thiels being driven by spectral gear and I got it, the magic was there! They were AWESOME! No one apparently ever had them setup with gear that was really good enough to drive them properly.

Likewise until you hear a quality system driving articulate speakers, you'll not believe what I am saying, why should you, it runs contrary to your experience.
Best Regards,

Lou
