Vandies a good fit ?


Upgrade time for my speakers. Heard Vandersteen 2CE Signatures and liked the sound, but I can see 2 possible problems.
1. I only have 26 inches from the rear wall. So the 10 inch thick Vandersteen's will have 16 inches of air behind them.
2. My amp is a 45 watt tube CJ MV-52. Passive preamp. CD player and tube tuner. I listen to classical and jazz at low to moderate levels.
Will the Vandies work?

You'd probably do better with a pair of the 1C's and one 2wq subwoofer. That's what I'd do in your situation...
18" from the back wall seems to be the magic number for Vandy 2 Sigs. Can't comment on the power issue.
consider medowlark kestrels.
i second to 1c as a better choice with sub for 45wpc amp.
i would look at stand mounted speaker...the vandies bottom end may overpower the room.
