lg316b, are you considering a 2nd 2wq? It gets better still - not more "bass", but even better soundstaging and midrange clarity. The 3As with 2wqs were the best integrated mains/subs I have heard - usually I am quite disappointed in subwoofer integration but Vandersteen has seemed to work it out, at least with his speakers.
Vandersteen 2WQ vs Martin Logan Depth
My 2-Way monitors have Accuton drivers and are very fast and high resolution. I am looking for a fast, musical and accurate subwoofer.
I have tried the REL R35 and B&W ASW 750, but these subwoofers were slow, and were not able to match my speakers' speed and resolution.
After doing some research, I have filtered down to Vandersteen 2WQ and Martin Logan Depth (or Depth i). I am open to other suggestions also.
Which of these subwoofers are fast, and which one do you think will blend better with my speakers.

I've just added 2 Vandersteen 2Wqs to my system and the improvements are incredible. Here's the link http://forum.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/fr.pl?vaslt&1205390334&openflup&15&&mark#15 |
Glad to hear you are up and running with your 2 Vandersteen 2WQ Subs....... One other thing I would like to add The leveling of our Main speakers and 2WQ subs. Placing a level on top of speakers and check for proper Front to back and side to side level adjustments, tighten lock nuts and check again till perfect. Best John |
Gentlemen sorry for the late reply but been busy with my system. Yes I plan to add an aditional 2Wq to my system I just need to allow my FUNd money to build back up. Two 2Wq's have been in my plan all along, just figured I would take the plunge and try one to insure I liked the results before I lay down that much cash. Plus the holiday season is just around the corner so it will be sometime after Christmas. But yes just as soon as heard the results from just one I knew another 2Wq was in the near future without question. John I agree with you I think you posted this suggestion about leveling in someone else's post, I tried it and it works wonders for the soundstage. I haven't had the chance to try it with the sub but hay what can it hurt. Thanks for the advise. Bssk Let us know what you decide and keep us posted on your results afterwards. Happy Listening. |
