Replacement for Vandersteen 2ci


I have had Vandersteen 2ci speakers for about 20 years. I am looking to upgrade them with something that has an equal or preferably smaller footprint (39.75" high x 16" wide x 10.25" deep) with same or better sound quality presence.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

My electronics are BAT 3iX and BAT VK55.

Thanks

I recently replaced my 1986 Vandersteen 2C's with the newer 2CeSigIIs. Treat yourself and go listen to these speakers...
Jtma,

My 2C's were older than your 2Ci's but the difference with the 2CeSigII's is the more transparent mid range and top end detail. Of course the crossover and drivers are all improved(using the 3A Signature mid and tweeter)over my much older 2C's. The bass seems deeper I believe my older 2C were 36.5 inches high vrs 39.75 giving the bottom end a little more authority. I've never heard your 2Ci model but let your ears be the judge and give the 2CeSigII's a listen...you won't be disappointed...
