- A while back, friend of mine and I were looking for speakers. We listened to
- the paradigm and the vandersteens. We both liked the vandersteens better and
- finally bought the vandersteen. I have not listened to the thiele. So, I
- can't say one way or the other. But the Stereophile gave a rave review on the
- thiele 2.2. I must say though, the vandersteen 2Ce is the cheapest amongst all
- three. Finally, amongst all the speakers I listened to during that period of
- time, I like the Apogee Minor (at one store) the best. I didn't go for the
- Apogee was because I thought they were (rightly or wrongly) difficult to set
- up.
