Vandersteen


After hearing many good things about Vandersteen speakers I purchased a pair of 3a signatures. They sound beautiful with chamber music or small group jazz but quickly fall to pieces with symphonic works or rock. Have other people noted this deficiency with Vandersteens?

I have the 3A sigs for about a year now and could not be more impressed. I've attended many demo's prior to the purchase and heard a lot of great, and not so great speakers. The one thing that sucked me into Vandersteen was that I just couldn't stop listening to them. Some speakers I raved about imagining, others the level of detail but the 3A's I just listened and enjoyed. To me they are just make you want to listed instead of dissecting the pros/cons. 
I have an odd shaped room with high ceilings and I can not tell how much proper placement, tilt, toe and contour controls can improve the sound but even right out the box they sounded great....just very enjoyable to listen to with zero fatigue. 
when that woofer is pushed properly rock music is excellent
