Vandersteen 1Ci , your experience?

The size of your room and help make your decision.   I recently purchased apair of 2ce II signatures and had them in a small room 10X12.  They sounded good but was curious what they would sound like in a larger room so moved them downstairs into my living room which is much larger and has a vaulted ceiling and they just came alive.  The difference was huge.  

If you have a smaller room the 1's may actually sound better but if size allow's you'll get more sound from the 2's.  

Of the rooms I could use them in, the sizes would be 14x25, 12x14 and 12x15.  I have owned and liked the following brands in the past, original Advents, Dahlquist 10, Maggie 1.6, 3.6 and 20, Martin Logan Sequel, a couple of models of Quads...and, likely, others I have forgotten.  I am an old fart and do have some rock I listen to, but I am mainly a listener of classic Jazz from the last century and some classical.  Volume is not a factor as I listen at levels that will not make the dog leave the room.  Over the last 20 years I have become more of a listener of very good small college Jazz and Classical stations...esp. ones that do not compress or freq. limit their signals.  One of the small college stations seems to have some students that have discovered American Jazz from the 30s through early 70s and it is a joy to listen to the 20-something year old "D.J.s" love for the music....and nearly half of the students are females...and do take requests for some of the great female Jazz/Standards singers. 

Take care, Jim

@whatjd ,
Those room sizes should be fine with with the Vandy's. And, given your previous brand preferences, I think you will find the Vandy sound to your liking.
