    System #204 (Vantage)

    :D:pYeah, my Vandersteen Manual!:rocker: They have finally arrived and my apologies for not posting any updates more quickly, but have been battling a pesky computer problem as of late. However, here are a couple of preliminary pictures that we took and were able to post. When my computer...

    Must have setup tool

    Hey Tim, that sounds like a good idea! I thought of purchasing one myself but haven't gotten over the price just yet. It's nice that my dealer will let me borrow it, but if others would like to get one for the group count me in. Also, my speakers arrived about 4 weeks ago and I have been...

    Must have setup tool

    While I'm not Jeff and started the thread I can answer that question. $250 + a test record. One site I saw was selling the set together for $279 I think. Glen

    Must have setup tool

    My dealer had to make a fairly significant change from what appeared to be level on a VPI Classic sporting a Karat 17d3. In my case though the Dynavector Te Kaitora appears to be exactly level when setup properly using the fozgometer. The only caveat is that a very small change in azimuth...

    Must have setup tool

    Thanks Jeff! I look forward to your review in the next issue. Hopefully local dealers who sell turntables will purchase one of these so they can set the azimuth correctly or at least let the customer borrow/rent the unit as in my case. (BTW he let me borrow it for the weekend) It's nice to...

    Used Spire, Vantage, or new - Magnepan 1.7 - what should I buy?

    Hello jjay, I have listened a little to the new Magnepan 1.7's and thought their upgrade from the 1.6's were more of an evolutionary upgrade. Some of this was cosmetics and I'm not sure what all they changed since the last version, but they sounded pretty close to me. Of course the 1.6's were...

    I agree that Jonathan's system is awesome, but I think you posted in the wrong thread.:D Glen

    Must have setup tool

    I just read at another audio site that Tonepub will be doing a review of the Fozgometer in his next issue:eek:. Can't wait for that to come out!!:drool: It will be interesting to see if Jeff likes it or if it is just another gimick. Although my experience so far has been very positive with...

    Must have setup tool

    Must have setup tool!!!! I just borrowed a Fozgometer from my dealer and it worked great!!! Here is a link: http://www.elusivedisc.com/prodinfo.asp?number=FOSARM Very easy to use and really dials in the azimuth setting by removing the guess work. Assuming that your arm allows for such an...

    System #45 (Monolith IIIx, SL3XC, Sequel II)

    I tell you what Jonathan, I'll come over and remove those panels from your hallway and hang them on a ceiling. (My ceiling!!!:p:D) I can definitely attest to the great sound and video you have, and completly understand why you would rather just listen and watch.:rocker: Glen

    System #204 (Vantage)

    Thanks Jonathan for the compliment and I will definitely post my impressions between the Vantages and Quatros. It appears I will be requesting Jim Smith's services again to help with the placement. Most likely though I will wait until then to write a summarization of the two. Hopefully if all...

    System #204 (Vantage)

    No speakers!!! Ever since I sold my Vantages it's been difficult to see the emptiness in the front of my room.:( Hopefully I will get the new speakers in this week, but the past few weeks have been mighty depressing. The upside was my wife and I got a chance to do some decorating in there and...

    If not ML...what other speaker?

    I received in the mail a current edition of Stereophile with a review of the Vandersteen Model Seven's yesterday. Fremer did the review, he also reviewed the Quatro's a few years back, and seemed to like them quite a bit. Just like any speaker, he did mention a couple of caveats, but this...

    Analyzing the reproduced sound. What do you prefer?

    For me it is linearity across the reproduced frequency range/timbre(tonal) accuracy, soundstaging, waveform integrity/low distortion, and dynamics. I'm not sure if I would classify these in order of magnitude for my tastes, but rather the reproduced sound needs to be competent in all of these...
