Vandersteen Moel 2Ce better than Model 1B used in midsize room



Probably the answer is yes but for now i must say i’m quite happy with mine model 1B. The situation is i can buy a used 2Ce for a reasonable price. I don’t have big annoying problems with the 1B only the tend to drown a bit when the music get more complex an is building up like a orchestra build up to a crescendo. My main music is Jazz like Chat Baker an fusion jazz like Billy Cobham which reproduce the 1B excellent. I was wondering how big the change will be by replacing the 1B with the 2Ce.

I have the newest 2CE, the Signature 3 (they replaced 20 year old 2CE's...I guess you can conclude I like the Vandy sound!).

My room is about 12x15 with the speakers on the long wall. I’m about 8 feet from the speakers. They sound excellent. The next step is to tune the room to tame the bass, because it’s a small-ish room.

If you can get the 2CE Sig2 or Sig3, do it--I don’t think you’re regret it. I would love to have Vandy Treo CT’s but need more moolah!
