Being a VSA dealer, I am a big fan. I have to also say that we are not really talking apples to apples. If the TC50's were being sold today, I am sure they would be quite a bit more money than the VR1's.
Now that all that is behind us, I am 45 years old and have been around this since birth. My father had Bozak's when I was born and still uses them as subwoofers with TC50's for mids and highs. He actively drives the different speakers and uses an electronic crossover. He gets suprisingly great sound.
I do not want to cost Von Schweikert Audio a sale, but as good as the VR1's are, unless you are considering the VR2's, I might stay with the Spicas. The boys at VSA are going to be pissed at me. :)
