well, they sound better than anybody else. I was just at a show with both Crossroads and Vocal Spectrum, and I love Crossroads, which will probably win the quartet contest this year...and there was no comparison. Vocal Spectrum was head and shoulders over Crossroads in terms of balance, blend, brightness, energy. Vocal Spectrum is simply the best barbershop quartet in the world right now.
