- In "Audible Difference", a high-end shop in Palo Alto,
- I used to have a good impression on the sytem they set up which consists
- of ADCOM 535 amp (60w/ch) and 575 CD player driving Vandersteen 1B.
- I though it sounding pretty good...
- The only quibble I have was a little muddiness, and a slight sign of
- congestion in a complex passage of classical orchestral music.
- Anyways, I thought since the experts in the knowledgeable hifi shop
- presented such a set-up, it could be a pretty good match.
-
- Well... is it time for me to audition B&K driving Vandy's?
-
- As a potential buyer of ADCOM's, B&K's, or Acurus's and possibly Vandy's,
- I would be very interested what other pepole think, although the
- final decision should be on my listening.
-
- Thank you.
