@audionoobie Interesting. I also bought a pair of Vandy 1Cs from a local Jersey dealer. This was in 2000. I since added a pair of 2Wq subs. I upgraded my electronics until I felt that I had taken the 1Cs as far as they could go. The natural upgrade would have been the 2Ci, but they were too large for my small man cave. My search for an upgrade led me to the Walsh 2000s, new at the time. I bought them without an audition, and never looked back. With the Vandy subs, these things just kill it in every genre. My review is posted in the review section. It was a great move. If you can swing it, keep looking for a pair of Walsh Talls. They won't disappoint.

@oldaudiophile Interesting. When I worked briefly at Sixth Avenue Electronics in NJ, we sold Bose and a few decent brands, like NHT and Paradigm. The Bose were on display only in a separate alcove. They were not allowed to be displayed where they could be compared to other speakers. That was the Bose rule! |
@tksteingraber Your 2000s have a tweeter attenuation switch? That used to be available only in the 5000s, IIRC. My 2000s are an early production pair, and lack any controls. When did you buy yours? |
