Salk HT3 vs VAS VR4jr

I used to own the jr's and now own the HT3s. As far as bang for your buck,parts
and build, it's no contest,the HT3s are a amazing value(not saying the jr's are not a good vaue).They are sold derict so there is no dealer mark up. This of course does not mean that you will like the sound of the HT3s more then the jr's.
One of my speakers corners was dinged a little in shipping so I had to send one speaker back after only acouple of days of listening. However without proper set up of any kind
I may have found the speaker for me but I need more time for sure.
My problem with the jrs was to much and bloated bass in my room. If not for this I probably would still own them.
One issue with the Salks is that it can take 3 months or more to recieve your speakers but I think all or most owners would say it's worth the wait.
If you go to audiocircle.com there is a Salk audio owners circle, you will get more and better info then I have given you here. Larry

Yes each speaker had 50 lbs of lead shot,it did help but I was never completely happy with the quality of the base.If you read comments here on audiogon some had the same experience as me,others write about tight & fast bass,I'm sure there are room issues.With what you would pay for the jrs if you decided not to keep them you probably lose little in resale.

Take your time setting the jrs,I found proper spacing made a big differenc in imaging and the ability of the speakers to disappear. Good Luck Larry
