General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: Why do my Vandersteen's sound...

I've always thought my system sounded better with small groups rather than large bands and orchestras. How does your system sound with small classical ensembles like trios, quartets and sextets? My system sounds great with small jazz groups and small classical ensembles, but not as good with large bands and orchestras. I just think it's due to the somewhat small size of my listening room and speakers. Furthermore, I sit very close to my speakers, which are arranged in a near-field listening configuration.

I think you need to have a large listening room and large speakers to make a full-size orchestra sound its best. However, maybe that's just me. I've never had a real large listening room with large speakers.

Happy listening!
