Old Vandersteen model 2 vs. newer model 2

Vandy 3A Signature is a special loudspeaker. To my ears, the next significant upgrade is the Kento.

Happy Listening!

The conclusion to this story is that I changed to plan B.  Plan A was bring the 2As  home and show to my wife (who is an amazing decorator) at which point she would probably reject them, but I would get at least a week of temporary listening.  Plan B was to show her what they look like before and score husband points, but with high risk of upfront rejection.  

Now I'm going to look for beat-up super-cheap 2 or 3 As to use in my basement where I am the sole decorator, but where I don't listen much.  When I find them I will also do some temporary main system listening.

@ddinnsen - Will be posting for sale here on Audiogon my very nice pair of 2ce Sig II speakers this weekend. Nothing wrong with them. Just bought new speakers yesterday.

Just out of curiosity, which brand and model of speakers did you buy?
