I would just love this for XMAS!!!
Nice holiday present for me....
OK, so this is a Transparent attempt to win these rather desirable speakers. Vanatee, you could say...

I could use a set of speakers like these.

One Two THree
I wouldn't mind having a pair.
free speakers!!
These would rock the lab just fine.
Look at all the posts! I may disqualify myself as I already have a pr of T1's but my buddy and I heard them at the Capitol Audiofest and we literally looked around for a sub. These speaks do sound nice and the bass is amazing for their size. My brother-in-law was over the other week and we listened to them using a Logitech Transporter as the source and he was more than a little impressed (Beatles Mono and Pink Floyd selections in FLAC). In fact, he called later to get a link to the Vanatoo web site so I'll send him here.. free is always good!
I'm pulling out of sweepstakes. Read the rules... unfortunately EU is still not part of US. M
I'd really like a pair of these....
I'm in. Good luck to all
Let's see if I get lucky
Would love to win them.

Thanks for the opportunity.
...for a chance to win.
Perhaps. But I love me some Michael Fremer and have been intending to register for a long time, anyway. An opportunity for some free stuff is as good an excuse as any to finally join the discussion.
Yes, please count me in for the drawing. I have not heard them but hopefully I will, because they'll soon sitting on my desktop.
to win what looks to be a very versatile and inexpensive set of speakers.
Would love to add these to my desktop
They will just force me to rearrange one of my systems yet again.

I've been reading about high-end audio for years, but can't afford new equipment. It would be great to get these speakers!

We twinkle below.
I find I spend so much on firmware, vinyl, that I end up without enough to upgrade my hardware. New speakers would be so welcome.
Great Speakers!

I am greedy,and think you should make this a contest,of most entertaining comments,then draw from them.
I'd love to have them / hear them!
Thanks Mike for all of the good reads!
Breakfast in bed with vinyl played through a pair of Vanatoo Transparent One's would be the perfect setting in a bedroom.
I'll give it a shot...

I want you, Transparent One . . .
Good luck everyone!
These speakers are perfect for me!
Would be nice to win.
Pick me, please.
Perfect for my laptop system!

Comment
I will gladly accept any free items any manufacturer wants to send me.
Speakers yay!
It's worth a try
I will gladly accept any free items any manufacturer wants to send me.
looks like a great addition to any movable digital system.
powered speakers are great!
Loved to hear how these sound!
Winner!
I'm currently looking for a pair of powered bookshelf speakers. Would love to hear these.
Could use these
Seriously, yes please.
I'll use them on regulirly.
Since practically all mobile devices today do not have a fixed line output, one must use the headphone output to connect to powered speakers, amp or preamp. Finding the optimum variable output setting by using the transmitting devices volume control is usually a matter of trail and error to find the right setting without damaging the powered speaker. What is one to do in the case of the Vanatoo Transparent One Speakers in using them with a device that only allows one to use the variable output (i.e. Headphone) to connect to the Vanatoo's. What is the analog input requirements for the Vanatoo's? If they only accept a fixed line input, what is one to do when they only have a variable output source and they do not want to damage the powered speaker?
Sign me up
Who couldn't use new speakers?
How's about it
I'm in.
I have just the place for these - my home!
Yes, please, I'll take two!
I have been a musician for 20+ years. I deserve this. I have a home studio that would be complete if I were to win these. please consider me? thank you.
Looking forward to reading more about these.
I want to win!
I want these more than you.
