Vandersteen 5a or Eggleston Andra II


This question is for those of you who have listened to the Vandersteen 5a AND the Eggleston Andra II or who purchased one after listening to BOTH.

I am looking at upgrading from the Energy Veritas 2.8 to one of these speakers.

I listen to everything except country. I love the built in 400 watt amps in the 5a, and I love the tweeter in the Andra II.

I have read all the reviews on both of these speakers and would like to hear from you as to why you like one over the other.

Thank you in advance.

Coming from an Energy Veritas you might find the Vandy sounded too polite. I haven't heard the Andra II but I suspect that is the reason you like its tweeter. But the most important aspect of any speaker is the mid-range, not the tweeter nor the sub. I suggest you go back listen to them again and buy the one with the mid-range that you like.
