So I have settled on the fact that my place is too small for electrostatics.

I am now looking at a pair of Thiel CS1.5 or a pair of Vandersteen 2C
What am I sacrificing if I take one over the other?

I think I can get the Thiel for $350 and the 2C's for $300.

Also, I was considering a nostaglia buy of Rectilinear lll high boys for $80. Is that a waste?

I have never heard any of these speakers.

Thanks
