About the 2C
The Vandersteen Model 2C is a passive, floorstanding loudspeaker from the Model 2 family, produced from 1980 to 1989. Its time-aligned, fabric-dome tweeter and cone midrange and woofer are complemented by a rear-mounted 10-inch active acoustic coupler for low-frequency output. The 2C uses first-order crossover slopes and was made in versions with either two or four input terminals; the four-terminal version supports bi-wiring or bi-amping. It is distinct from later models such as the 2Ci and 2Ce.
