In Reply to: Vandersteen question. posted by Lesley H. on April 28, 2007 at 08:05:16:
Someone asked a similar question just recently over at Vandersteen's website. RV essentially said that he frequently tweeks his products over time; thus a new 2ce Sig II will sound better than, say, a five year old 3A Sig (other than in the bass). I'm really loving my 2ce Sig IIs. I have heard deeper and slightly tighter bass (e.g., Thiel 7.2), but I have no bass complaints with the IIs. My take is that you get nearly all the 3A's sonic performance in a smaller and less expensive (and easier to drive?) package. IMO, they are the best deal in audio. They certainly aren't the "best" speakers out there, but I think they get pretty close - you gotta spend many times more to beat 'em. Their main fault, IMO, is a slightly veiled quality to some voices and acoustic instruments. I don't have them properly bi-wired yet, so take this observation with a grain of salt (I agree with the Stereophile review almost point-by-point). Despite that, they are VERY musical - I'm keeping 'em!
