I heard the Vandersteen 1Cis set up at Audioconnection, and I was very favorably impressed. Johnny was playing Rosa Lee by Doug MacLeod and I asked him -- where's the sub? Really big sound from such small floor standers. He was driving them with tubes, so it sounds like you're good on that front.
I have to think that they have their dynamic limitations given the 1st order crossover and the relatively low crossover point....but if you're not cranking it, I don't think it will be a practical problem.
