Vandersteen 1C are easy to listen to, easy to like, organic, and INEXPENSIVE. Try a used pair and move up the line if you like the "house" sound. I own the 1C and have no real aspirations to go further. They are NOT the most resolving speakers, but they are forgiving, easy to place and musical.
Need to replace my Totem Acoustic Arros
Hey guys,
I’m on the market for a new pair of floorstanders. My Totem Arros are great but I am looking for something more. My criteria is as follows:
Will be in a small-medium size room(s)
Must be floorstanding
Must be efficient enough to be driven with 20-30+ watts (possibly tubes)
Must obviously best the Arro in most regards
Looking for something that is refined and organic sounding
I am starting to listen to music with more scale and want something that can keep up with the dynamic swings of classical music. Yet, I listen to a lot of chamber and folk music along with a decent amount of jazz.
Budget is $3,000 new or used.
Speakers cannot be Totems. I've owned just about every Totem on the block and I am looking for something different.
