Need input on new speakers

Hi all, I currently have a pair of Vandersteen 1 ci+ and a Lyngdorf TDAI 1120 and I love it, but it does not shine when I listen to Rock mostly Grunge. So I'm putting a smaller room together it is about 12x12. I will be using a Rotel 1572mkii. I am in the U.S. and want to stay around $2000. I am disabled and permanently in a wheelchair so in the room I sit about 7.5 feet from where the speakers would sit. New or used does not matter, floor standing or bookshelf. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

@gordo1962,

You have one of the few Time and Phase aligned speakers made in the world. It is also one of the smallest speakers in the Vandy line. So, you shouldn't expect it to 'Rock'. If anything, adding a subwoofer would probably be the best thing rather than changing speakers. Seeing how you enjoy how they can 'dissapear' means you like them, but just need a little more 'oomph'.

As a Vandy owner, you are able to join the Vandersteen website(Just Google Vandersteen). There you can access lots of great information. We love to help all owners.
