The Vandersteens are not typically seen as rockers, but I have owned them in the past and liked them quite a bit. If your amp is running out of gas, you might try a Vandersteen 2WQ powered sub, which would handle the LF which requires large amounts of power, leaving less work for your main amp.
Good timing for me.
I just received a purchase offer for my house. My wife has been trying for years to get me to sell this house. I made a deal with her that if I could pick the next house,"AND" buy a new (used pair) of speakers for myself, that I would sell.
I am not going hog wild or anything like that. I have other interests also. I learned my lesson on going nuts with this hobby.
So far I have tried:
Proac Studio 250's
Thiel 1.2s
Magnepan MMG
Pardigm Variouse
Meadowlark Shearwater
and currently Vandersteen 2c's that seem to get real close to what sound I am looking for. I like classic Rock from AC/DC to Zep.
The rest of my system is a pair of Rogue Magnum 120's that are seeming to run out of juice for loud levels with the Vandersteens.
A ARC LS3
VPI hw19jr TT
I wiould like to keep it at $2000.00 Not much more.
I was thinking the obvious
Klipsch and JBL
I don't know much about the history though. Dates to avoid and driver info. Can anyone give some advice or info ?
Thanks, Scott
