Kef 104/2 or Vandersteen 2ci - vintage shoot-out

thanks Zd

Ive hooked up my new mint 2ci's and my first impression is that i'll be selling 104/2's. They are more musically involving to my ear. I've noticed the "colored" warm sound that I've read about but i don't find it particularly offensive. I really liked the 104/2's but these have more imaging and as i say, seem more involving.

Next step is to source the lead shot for the stands… and i've sourced a Tempest preamp to mate up to the Odyssey Stratos Monoblocs so i'll have some fun switching pre-amps and speakers around before i make any final decisions.

Yes these are my first Vandies.
The cable I am using is internal bi-wire.

I have some old school monster cable, quite thick, I will try your suggestion.
