@noromance Brian, congrats on the Treo. **Your system is improving so fast**. Let us know what improvements you're enjoying.
That’s probably because it needed so much improvement 😁
As I said earlier, the Treo’s are much more refined, especially in the mids. The presentation is much different than the 2’s. More ‘air’, and the music just ‘hangs’ in it, more ‘spacial’. The overall timber and tone is what I would expect from Vandersteen, and the reason I’m such a fan. The sound is so natural for all three Vandy’s I have. The 2’s, albeit very good, were just a heavier focused and overall thicker overall presentation in comparison. That said, I’ve been messing with the placement a lot over the last couple albums. I’m making pretty big moves checking out the ‘extremes’. Not yet getting that locked-in center and overall defined imaging I had with the 2’s that help the speakers disappear, but that is just a matter of figuring out the correct placement for my room. It took me a long time with the 2’s to get right, and the Treo’s will be the same.
