Sep 1, 2009 About Vandersteen "...it’s arguable that no other individual has had a larger impact on the world of high-performance audio than Richard Vandersteen." Peter Roth See Full Review Jan 13, 2009 Model Seven (Discontinued)
That garage project, which became the Vandersteen Audio Model Two, was an instant classic and went on to become the best-selling audiophile speaker of all time. While many speaker companies have come and gone in the past 47 years, and others have ventured in different technical directions, Van...
In one sense,Richard Vandersteenhas been the victim of his own success. His Model 2 loudspeaker (footnote 1), introduced at the 1977 Consumer Electronics Show, put his company on the map but proved a hard product to improve on. Based on the idea that the HF and midrange drive-units shoul...
