New Von Schweikert Models


I just got a press release from VSA showing the new VR4SR ($8K/pr) and VR9 SE ($60K/pr) that will be demoed at CES. Man I wish I was going, not only for this, but for everything else as well.

The VR-9SE's are a finished product, the first 2 pairs already having been shipped out 4 weeks ago.
I'm looking at a pair right now.
And listening.
Anyone unable to attend CES and remotely near Ohio is welcome to come by for a listen. Don't plan on being in a hurry :^)
The new SR's sounded fabulous at the show. I lived with and am therefore intimately familiar with( no Tim, not in that way) the Jr's for 8 mo's while awaiting the 9's. They are excellent and a huge bang for the buck. I thought the SR's took what the Jr's do to a new level. More refined, greater ease of presentation and better bass. Very, very nice sounding, and at 8K, for what they do, another great bang for the buck. And they are beautiful looking. The Jr's at the show sounded as expected, better than they should. The dB 99's were good also, but I don't think they were set up optimally and ergo didn't sound as good as they could have. I've heard them elsewhere sound much better and know what they are capable of. The 9's and 11's were stunning.
