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.

Ozzy,

As an alternative to the spikes between bass module and m/t I highly recommend "Big Fat Black Dots" from Herbie's Audio Lab. I'm using four per speaker on my VR-4jr's with good results, primarily improved imaging and less grunge. http://herbiesaudiolab.home.att.net/bigfat.htm
Steve Herblein (a.k.a. Herbie) is great to deal with. I also use his tube dampers and cd grungebuster (great bang for the buck tweak).
