How does Vandersteen 2CE Sig II compare to Treo?


Seems like they use the same driver and the specs are similar.

Treo is the Vandersteen new product.

Ha. Nice looking speakers. If the drivers are the same, I think richard's rationale for the box less design makes sense and the Treo is really addressing aesthetic and WAF factors, not necessarily sonics; wood cabinets do cost a lot.
They're not the same lower drivers. The 2Ce uses an 8" woofer and a 10" active acoustic coupler. The Treo uses a 6.5" woofer and a downfiring 8" subwoofer which is active.
Based on this, I would think the Treo would be somewhat more open and sound a little more like the Quatro.
For comparitive purposes, the Treo is closer in price to the 3a Signature. Since the 3a Sig was upgraded a while back, it would be interesting to hear that comparison.
