I'd take the vega. I'm not impressed with the sound of the HE2s and I'd bet the Vegas will play a LOT louder. The Vegas have a 10db higher sensitivity, so with any given amount of power, they're going to be a LOT louder. I'm also quite fond of the sound of the 12" vegas. The only drawback is that they need a huge box.

Which Vega? The HED series i think are about even with the RF's but if its the Vega-Vega kinda like with the orange surround, then definately that. As long as its in the right box theres no comparing the sound.
