Belles 150A or keep current amp

Audioconnection, I owned Vandersteen 2CE sigs and tried them in a similar sized room. Very difficult to get the most out of them in that room. My problem was as much the visual aspect of those large monoliths dominating a room as it was getting them to sound good. If you looked through my posts, you would find me recommending the Vandy 1C as one of the lowest cost ways to get into hifi sound.
Now, $6K speakers? I paid $1,200 for mine and I would definitely chose them over the 2CE sigs.

Thanks for reply
Perhaps set up, non equal tilt back, no real guidance, bad interface was suspect.
Band aid wires are popular with many folks who use
them to tame bright box speakers.
Try em on a Vandy and mostly dont do well.,

Overly muted, powerless, warm gear also sucks the life or magic out of them.
Its easy to get Okay sound or make em sound average
You should experience where thy can go with bi wired AQ Gibraltar or Anti cables and gear like Music Reference, Ayre,or ARC etc As for the visual aspect Turn up the music and down the lights relax and enjoy true edge of the art I promise U....

I second the Belles 150A. I own the 150 Hot Rod which mates very well with Vandersteens. The older 150A Hot Rod
can be found used from $600-700. I have not heard the 150A Reference. Granted the room is small and even a used pair of Quicksilver amps would be interesting if you have the room.
