Anyone care to share their opinion of the Vandersteen 2ce sig mkII?
I've been searching the speaker discussions and have found many comments. But wondering if anyone would like to chime in about the mkII specifically. I have a pair in my room for the last month and have done extensive comparisons to my Snell type D and Maggie LRS. They certainly are very good speakers! They image and soundstage really well. They also have good tonal balance and range. I can see why some say they are the best value around. But, there is something bugging me about them that I am trying to nail down.
For 2ce owners, what do you like best about the speakers? What are you using to drive them?
For those who have auditioned and passed on them, what was it you did not enjoy about them?
This is a tough decision to be sure! But, I can't keep another set of speakers, especially ones of this size. More listening to come as I try to sort my thoughts.
All opinions welcome
Agree with @holmz I have Vandy 1C’s, 2CE Sig’s (first series), and now Treo’s. Yes, a big Vandy fan, but they all can sound great. But, speaker placement, and the required tilt per the manual, is vitally important to sounding their best. You also need the anchors for the 2CE’s to sound best…..and biwire. Worth the effort, as Vandy’s, to me, are very ‘musical’, and a speaker you can listen to for hours on end. |
