NoFeedback Posted January 3, 2017 Report Share Posted January 3, 2017 Not the fanciest speaker or the most expensive one, but owning one pair of Vandersteen Treo CT and the Audio GD Master 10 integrated amp would make me very, very happy.

ironbut Posted July 26, 2017 Report Share Posted July 26, 2017 Holy creakin' bass cabinets! The small PMCs have pretty damn good bass but those... Are those the monitors that you place upside down to get the tweeters at the right level Dusty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you put them on any kind of stand, yes, otherwise they'd be up in the rafters, no? But I live in a crummy non-bottom-floor apartment, I'm pretty sure I'd get assassinated if I even bought them. I think a separate dwelling would come before $125,000 monitors. That said, even if I had a proper studio with room treatments and whatnot, I'd still use them with the theory that more drivers with smaller travel == more linear bass, I.e. for deep bass, not exaggerated bass. Mostly. ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig Sawyers Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 Active crossover, 2400W for the bottom cab, 2400W for the bass units in the top cab, 550W for the mid and 275W for the tweeter. 330lb weight for the top cab and 308lb for the bottom (290 kg in all, 638 lb). And that is just one - double for stereo. Bit of an animal, really. Oh yes - they are British 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dusty Chalk Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 So a little over a ton for quad? I hope the bottom travel of the volume knob is accurate. I might crank it from 0.1 to 0.2 when I'm feeling dumbass. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Sawyers Posted July 27, 2017 Report Share Posted July 27, 2017 135dB at 1 metre for one. So 138dB for two. To find out how much blood can come out your ears and how quickly your eyes pop out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
