Why do my Vandersteen's sound...

Why do my Vandersteen 2Ce Sig II's sound great with jazz and horrible with orchestral music? The midrange on them gets all glassy and hard sounding, almost compressed and choked. It is almost like they turn into cheaper speakers. I am super frustrated and thinking I will move on and try to find something else, but I would love if one of you guys had any thoughts on this. I am running them on a KT-88 tube amp. I can get high volume out of them with it, it is just a sound quality issue. Almost like the midrange drivers can't deal with an orchestra.

Thanks for your thoughts!
