All vandersteen users ?


have been using vk55: 55wpc for a pair of vandersteen 2ce Sig2 where have been recently told by another dealer that unless we hit 200W, one cannot really imagine what these speakers are capable of ..... he mentioned immensely higher 'headroom'

now looking at either upgrading to

1. a pair of vk55 monblocks
2. or just a vk75

Speakers wise, wld be looking at going up to vandersteen quatro...

Qn: Wld 02 x vk55 monoblocks really be too little for vandersteen 2ce Sig2 OR for that matter the quatro..

any advice from any vandersteen users wld be highly appreciated...

Depends on the size of the room and how loud you listen. I have 3A signatures and power them with a AR Classic 60 in a small room at moderate levels. I have no power issues. I will say I haven't tried them with a higher power amp so I don't know for a fact it won't be better, but I prefer tubes and eight 6550s are enough for me!
