Thiel 3.6's vs. Vandersteen 3 sigs


Looking to upgrade. Currently have Vandersteen 2ce's which sound great, but have slight bass. So, I had to get a Velodyne FSR 12 to compensate, but this is not a really good match, I know. Anyway, I miss the bass that my old Thiel 03a's had by themselves. I'm guessing that Thiel 3.6's may cover all bases well. I'm not familiar with the VD 3 sigs, just hoping that they would cover the low frequencies better. Of course, the other option in to get the Vandersteen sub and keep the 2ce's. By the way, the speakers are powered by a Moscode 600 with a Rogue Audio 66 Magnum preamp. Any suggestions?

What about Thiel CS6 vs Vandersteen 3A Signature? I have a big room and I'm lusting for B&W 801 or 800 but can't afford 'em right now and B&W 802 seems rather smallish for my 50 sq.m I'm used to the big sound of JBL L150 and I want to keep the sound and the bass big but add all the bonuses of modern Hi End speakers - clarity, soundstage etc. Which one would be a better solution - Thiel CS6 (used) or Vandies? At the moment I have McIntosh 6900 and I know it's not enough for either of them but I plan to upgrade as well. Which speakers are more McIntosh friendly?
Both companies make great speakers. Just does not seem that bashing from either side makes any sense to me. They both shine with the right electronics, and no doubt the choice would be different depending on which brand you went for.
I am happy that people are still talking about Thiels CS3.6 as I have mine for so many years now. Tried to get rid of them but failed each time, it is just too hard to find a replacement with the money it yells. I love the soundstage and clean mids and highs. Not a very dynamic speaker.
One thing about both brands, owners to keep their speakers a long time, and if they make a change, it is "up the line" - that should tell you something. I would love to hear the 3.7.
I've had my 3.6's for 10 years and have no plans to take them out of my main system.
