Vandersteen 2WQ vs 2W


Is it worth paying extra for the 2WQ? I am limited on funds so I am considering the 2W since they seem to be going for around $500 used. I am leaning toward the 2W, but would pay more if the 2WQ has substantial changes from the 2W. Any opinions on the adjustable "Q" feature would be helpful.

Thanks for the responses.

I will use it for audio. I don't have my system setup for HT. I didn't realize the 2W was for HT - I thought the V2W was the only one specifically made for HT (with the passive radiator). In that case - I will look for the 2WQ on Audiogon. Any other good sites for used equipment besides Ebay?

I am looking for a sub that will match well with my MMG's. A lot of people on Audiogon and Audioasylum forums recommend a Vandersteen or REL sub with Maggies. I am leaning toward the Vandersteen since the REL subs seem to cost much more. I am currently using a JBL (PSW D112 - 12 inch woofer with 250 watts) sub, but it seems like a better sub for HT than for music.
