New Von Schweikert VR SR4 mk11 Cream or Crap ???


It is hard to find a recent review of these speakers.
The few comments I been able to find on the Mk 11 version is that they are either very good or very bad.
All reviews seem to like the bass response, that is a good thing, but what about all the other qualities ?
Like treble, midrange, dynamics, soundstage , etc.

I am really interested in these (I like the way the look )but I have no way to audition them in the southeast corner of Michigan.

So, please anyone that can give an honest opinion of the speakers sonic qualities would be appreciated.

If your comments sound like a winner, I may hop on a plane to hear them somewhere.

Audiotomb,
I've read a lot about the salks and I've interacted with owners in audio circle. I actually missed the opportunity to attend the RMAF in Denver last year as this was my chance to hear them because there is no one in Salt lake city i know who owns them. I wanted to get your take on the sound of them compared to the Vons vr4jr and used VR4 GenIII SE and HSE's. I'm leaning in the direction of the VAC musicbloc amps to push them because i like the 3d imagaging and the air around each instrument produced of those amps and from what i hear, the Vons work beautifully with VAC equipment. The Salks look dang good and its amazing what Jim Salk can do with wood veneers. It's on another level really. I understand that you like them better than the vons and i want to ask what do you like better about them?
