but there is now a 2Ce Sig III.
Yes, brand new from Richard. But as we are talking diminishing returns, and although I’m sure they are great for the money, even I would have a hard time making that purchase when I bought my Sig I’s for $600, or, $2,700 less than the III’s.
They, and their improvements, would have to awfully darn good to cover that gap in cost.
Interestingly, I first bought a pair of the 1C’s (later versions) in great shape used for $325 shipped. I knew I liked the sound so much after a very short time of listening, I found and bought my 2CE Sig I’s literally 2 months later, as I desired ‘more’. I still have the 1C’s, and use them for my rears in HT mode. So, for basically $900 have two pair of pretty darn good speakers.
The newest iterations of both would cost $4,780, PLUS tax and shipping.
I believe I did well, and came in well beneath any ‘diminishing return’ anxiety following my purchase(s).
