Well stated Theunderlyingtheme.I have a friend who has 4 Peavey DJS5 speakers hooked up to his "mass market" stereo reciever and he thinks my tube driven Tyler Acoustic speakers are lame.Oh well,everybody hears things differently!!!!
Vandersteen vs. JBL rock music etc.
I am considering a used pair of Vandersteen 2CE Signature and currently have JBL L166s and a pair of Infinity Crescendo 3008. Associated equip - Adcom GFA 555 II and Adcom GFP 555 II. The JBLs don't have the bottom of the Infinitys so the thought to "move up." How do the Vandys sound with rock music (classic) and blues? Are my electronics up to the Vandys? You can tame the mid and highs on the JBLs with the speaker controls which does eliminate the in your face sound and results in a nicer balance, but still bass shy. What type of SPLs are the Vandys capable of??
Any thoughts anyone??
