Wilson Sophia 1 vs vandersteen 2ce

Well I really like my vtl/belles combo... I probably don't have the budget to buy an amp right now....

Never liked those Wilsons...and always liked Vandersteens....You really should listen for yourself.

Thanks... It seems near impossible to really demo something like this unless I literally had a side by side comparison. Listening at a dealer's showroom will always make them sound better and they will always have higher end components. Maybe I am making a false assumption that 5x the cost speakers by a reputable speaker company should be a dramatic upgrade. Thanks anyways y'all 

While I do like those Wilsons, I think the setup that you have now is really well-balanced, and might not sound much (if at all) better merely substituting the Wilsons.  What is it about the Vandys that you don't like?

I am a Vandersteen user (3a sigs), and I heard the Wilson Sabrina's at a local dealer. I never heard of Wilson before, but I was really impressed by the sound they produced, so much so, that if a pair of Sophias or WattPuppy7/8's at the right price come up, I would buy them.
The Belles should have enough power (125 watt/channel, I think) to drive the Wilson's-unless you have a huge room/or like you music super loud.
