What's the dif bewteen Vandersteen 2CE and 2CE Sig


Hey guys,

I have a set of Vandersteen 2CEs and I see a pair of 2CE Sigs out there for sale at a decent price. I'm curious what the big differences are between the two and if it's worth picking up the upgrade.

Thanks!

I haven't heard the 2CE in a long time I can't comment on the difference between the two. Another option I would consider is having your speakers updated to Sig 1 status.
I found this on the Vandersteen website:

What is the difference between 2Ce & 2Ce Signature.

The 2Ce Signature’s advancements include:

· Barrier strip bi-wire inputs for the optimum cable to speaker interface. Cables need spade lug connectors with a maximum width of 7/16 inch.

· Upgraded crossover components.

· More sophisticated crossover technology with enhanced design and layout.

· An upgraded tweeter. (The one used in the Model 3A.)

· Improved coupling and transition between the woofer and the active acoustic coupler.

The 2Ce Signature is more transparent and conveys spatial information better than any previous Model 2 series loudspeaker. The low frequencies are tighter and more detailed. The highs are cleaner and lower in distortion.

With the addition of the 2Ce Signature, the Model 2 series reaches a new pinnacle of performance and musicality.
Just to confuse you even more ..... The current version is the 2Ce Signature 2.
