Vandersteen VLR CT
Compact Bookshelf with Carbon Tweeter
A small speaker that can. Featuring the same technology tweeter as in the top-of-the-line System NINE at 2% of the price.
Accurately reproducing the signal from the amplifier requires preserving all of the delicate time-domain relationships that comprise music. Because there isn't enough physical real estate to time-align such a compact speaker, making a time- and phase-coherent speaker in such a small box requires the use of coaxially-mounted drivers like the woofer/tweeter used here. This custom-built driver features the carbon tweeter technology only found on Vandersteens finest products. The result is all the coherence and dimensional purity one expects from a classic Vandersteen in a gorgeous and versatile little speaker, meant to be put onto a bookshelf close to the rear boundary.
