How does Vandersteen 2CE Sig II compare to Treo?

i love Vandersteen also and had the 1c, my cousin had the 2ce signatures II then moved to the quatros- great stuff. If you are looking for great sound and beautiful speakers look at Devore 8s or 9s for the wife.The only thing to worry about the Treo is the they are 85 db, not those most efficient.

I think they are some what voiced similar in that they are easy on the ears, I find the Devores use a silk dome tweeter and is very smooth but very dynamic. The only negative is sometimes I find them to be a little thin.That said nix is perfect in this game.The plus is they are 8 ohm speakers and very efficient so it leaves you with great options for amps. I would look at Harbeth hls5, great speaker for tone and a retro looking speaker with a great wood finish but also a easy load but not as efficient as the Devores.
