The shielded Tangband W3-871 S is also being used in Lancetta and CT 209, accepted by many customers with great enthusiasm.
In comparison with the smaller CT 209 the CT 211 delivers considerably more bass. Therefore, the CT 211 is more suitable as a front speaker, while the CT 209 is a perfect solution as centre and rear speaker. Although a system consisting of 5 to 7 CT 209 is definitely a proposition.
Excerpt of the CT 211's review by Klang+Ton: "Right after we had connected our pair of VB W3 1.0 it became clear which road these speakers were taking.

A tight beat remains tight, just as it should be. Purists may criticise the bass overdose, but it certainly kept within reasonable bounds. Somewhat thin recordings were even awarded the often missing oomph. Speaker placement is therefore obvious: away from walls and tilted toward the listener"...
