| Vandersteen 2CE or 1C for small room? A few years ago my system with a pair of Vandy 1Cs was in a 10X11 room. They worked very well in that small room. So well I bought a pair of the 2CE sigs from a local guy and put them in the room. The 2CE sigs were way too large for that room. IMO... | |

| $ 2500 ....Stay with Vandersteens ??...what else ? If your room will support the large 2CE sigs I say go for it. I had the 1Cs in a small listening room and loved them. When I upgraded to the 2CE sigs I was disappointed. It wasn't the speakers as much as it was the room. Your system pics look like... | |
