Set up for Vandy 2CE sigs

Have been very interested in the Vandersteen line. I've tried for days to get a pair of 1C's to sound good in my room, either with the manual, or by ear, but can't quite get it right. Am not hearing the ''laid back'' natural sound I was expecting.
I can try the 2CE sigs this weekend, so would appreciate any opinions on the main sonic and set up differences between the 1's and 2's.

FYI, my room is 14 x 14 x 7, square, but dedicated, and using Sim Celeste pre and power.

Thanks folks,
Mike

Thanks for the responses folks, much appreciated. An audio buddy of mine has offered to help with the 2's, see if two heads ( or four ears ) are better than one. I suspect also that my room is a major problem, but there may be hope yet. Since it's dedicated, I'm not restricted by domestic concerns about placement etc.

I hope the set up frustrations pay off with the sound quality the 2CE sigs are known to have.

Regards,
Mike

Thanks Rjones, I'm afraid you may be right about the room....square is not good, I know. Only room I can use at present tho. I set the 1C's up diagonally, used the manual, and the bases are on the speakers. Just couldn't seem to lock it down. The nearfield option may be the only one open to me. My present speakers are a mid sized monitor, and didn't present near as much sonic trouble as the larger Vandy.

Regards,
Mike
