Magnapan vs. Von Schweikert

I am considering upgrading my speakers and there is virtually nothing I can audtion in the city where I live so I have to depend on the ears of others.

A couple of well repescted AudiogoNers suggested I look into the Magnepan 3.6R when I told them I was interested in the Von Schweikert VR4. They didn't say anything bad about the VR4 they just recommended the Maggies.

If anyone has experience with either of these that might be helpful, or offer insight, I would appreciate it.

I've looked at some of the threads about both but I did not find anything that I thought applied to this particular question.

Thanks for your help.

I'm in complete agreement with Banksfriend here! To me, these speakers are sooo different from each other that the poster really needs to decide which type of sound suits him more: dynamic cones or planers. IMHO if you really want to compare these two particular speakers then we might as well start another impossible discussion like: which is better, great tube gear or great solid state?

The again, I only eat Mangos ;-)
