General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

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

I had Vandersteen Quatros for years (original cloth version, before the new carbon drivers), and they also sounded as you describe: great on small ensmeble jazz and classical, but unsatisfying for large scale orchestral music.

My suggestion is to trust your ears and move on.

Adding some info on amplification used:

Bryston 3B-SST (150W@8R)
Rogue M-180 monoblocks (power tubes used at various times: KT-90, KT-120, KT-88). Spec'd at 180W@8R
