| Vandersteen 5a vs Genesis 5.3 ? I have Vandersteen 5A's....not acquainted with the Genesis....however, if you have a question re: 5A's I can answer it. Richard Vandersteen is very willing to support his products... Happy with the speakers. | |

| Phono stage can minimize tics and pops on vinyl a good system won’t minimize the clicks.pops, but neither will it emphasize them. I hear the noise on a different plane than the music. In life, if someone sneezes from the 2nd balcony, it sounds from a different place than the orchestra. | |
