Vandersteen 3A Sigs vs Klipsch Forte III

Thanks for the above input. I currently have 1981 ADS L1230's. I imagine that they will compare more with the Vandy 3A Sigs than the Forte III's. And, if I go with the 3A's am I getting enough of an improvement over the ADS?  I should mention that I heard Forte II's and they were kind of sharp or biting. They had not been upgraded and had tubes behind them. Are the III's that much different than upgraded II's?

Sorry for the cell phone typo in Vandersteen!

What an interesting shootout!  Two really worthy speakers but so very different. I hope and expect that Mr Rutan will weigh in. 
The Anders teens are great speakers for sure,  less assertive,  but with really full bass which could be a bit much depending on your room.  Very coherent,  and satisfying with all types of music... The girl you marry. 
I personally also love the Forte.  Typical horn virtues of speed and detail with a great sense of energy,  and just plain fun.  It's difficult for me to imagine someone hating them. 
I'll be interested to hear what others have to say.  I think that if you flipped a coin,  you couldn't lose. 

Surprised no one has chimed in yet. I think Vandies do better in the areas of imaging, soundstaging and disappearing. My 2c. YMMV
