    Recommended replacement for Vandersteen VCC1

    I wish to upgrade my Vandersteen VCC1. I have coveted the VCC5 for years, but for the price of admission I would have gone that direction. Fortunately I didn’t, given Amirm’s recent review, for which I am exceptionally grateful...as several times I have just almost taken the plunge. So back...
