Really excited to know about these speakers. Would love to have them.
Me want.
I would probably hook it up to my PC, since my 11-year old Sony 400-disc CD changer finally bit the dust and I ripped 350+ discs to the HDD in .wav and .mp3 formats. But if worst comes to worst, I can always sell the Vanatoo on ebay and use the money to pay for my very expensive kidney transplant operation. Not that I'm trying to use that for sympathy or anything. Heavens to Murgatroid!
Shame they only accept 120V.
Wonderful addition to my room
Fingers crossed!
Count me in.
Wonder how elegantly, in terms of "thumping", it handles analog devices physically connecting and disconnecting.
Pun intended!
They look good, with a lot of built in options. I'd use them !
Looking for a nice set of desktop speakers. These would be awesome for a great desktop music experience!
give em up
I'll take them!
I hope I win
These would be great to own as they'd bring my speakers into this century!
Please send me new speakers!!!
These would be perfect for our office!
These bad boys would be perfect for my dorm room!
I'd love a pair!
If I could own these, I'd delete every lossy file in my collection as to not defile these
These would sound great in my kitchen
I could use a pair of desktop speakers. Thanks for the contest.
I'd like this!
Thanks!
Heard nothing but great things about these!
These would be perfect for my office!
nice speakers
Great sound from great technology for a great price!
Would look good in my new studio.
Nice. Free stuff!
Love to win these speakers!
Wouldn't it be nice to have decent computer speakers? Possibly, reasonable size quality speakers for a bedroom? Might not even need a sub with these, they probably out perform my Logitech Z-5300 in the bass department.
These speakers have everything except their own app.
Perfect for my bedroom or Office!!!
I'll probably use them in the garage when I work on my old car. They'll replace a single old AR Powered Partner:-)
Hey, looks like these speakers would work fine.
Get new speakers. These speakers look like a very worthwhile upgrade :)
I could use a Good set of pseakers
and I would venture to say that they sound great too
Looks very nice and compact.
These speakers would help me attain audio Nirvana!
These nice bookshelf speakers would be a perfect addition to my office sound system. Here's hoping it's my lucky day !
I would love to hear this amazing sound updating 30 year old speakers which still work:)
BABABOOEY!!!!
Yes I would of course accept these wonderful speakers.
nice looking speakers!
NOICE!
these speakers.
Anything beats the sound coming out of my laptop speakers
These would go great with my laptop!
Seriously need some new speakers that will work for my PC using Adobe Audition. These would fit the bill perfectly. I'll keep my fingers crossed. Thanks.
I'd love to get one.
I heard these speakers in DC, and I was blown away by how good they sounded. I almost bought a pair on the spot. Sure would be nice to win a pair!
Nice speakers. These must be transparent because they blend in well with the surroundings. They would be nice to listen to.
Compact and neat. It should be great to fit my study room.
Very nice
Everyone needs a good set of powered speakers and the spec's for these look very promising.
Very cool. Lots of options. Outstanding. Can't wait to demo
Awesome!!
I gotta go demo these!
Looks like some nice speakers!
I have a spot for them!
These speakers would be amazing to own!
THE Vanatoo Transparent One Speakers HAVE A GOOD SOUND TO THEM
A compact speaker system with lows extending to 48Hz would be a great tool for an audiophile or even someone who needs a great nearfield monitor to compliment a project studio. It would be great to use a Vanatoo Transparent One to compliment a video monitor for video editing.
would love winning these
Looking to replace my old Triads with these. The Triads replaced a pair of Dahlquist DQ10s that finally gave up the ghost. Wasn't an exact match with that initial replacement, but the size differential made up for the sonic difference. Hopefully, these new speakers will be a much better improvement!
These are the speakers I keep buying cheaper more disappointing alternatives to in the hopes I could match their performance. It's time I got the real thing.
I would love to have these to hear Jerry's voice come through the music.
Good luck everyone!
I'm in!
It would be great to let them stretch their legs in my home.
Nice speakers. Quality looks fantastic along with the design.
Perfect for my office!!
Interesting design
Those look awesome, and look to be exactly what I need. Yeah!
I have just the perfect spot for a pair of these speakers/
They look really interesting with all the different connection options. I think they would be great for a remote system.
Looking forward to checking them out.
these would be great in my office!!!

If I don't win the speakers...can I have a glass of wine.
Cheers
Pretty amazing speakers for that size.
Have to go with my PC, as my old Yamaha stereo receiver probably doesn't even have the ability to hook up these modern speakers.
These would be great in my office--I'd love to have them. What else is there to say?
What's a Vanatoo?
These appear to be a perfect fit for my computer system.
these speakers sound very interesting. it'd be nice to have them
Would love to have a pair as my audio only system
