VMPS 626 JR

I have read several reviews on these speakers and was wondering if anyone has personal experience with them. I've never owned a ribbon/cone combination and am curious as to how the combination sounds. My music tastes ranges between jazz, swing/big band, vocals, acoustic and some rock. Listening levels are between 60 - 90 dB.
The reviews didn't mention it but the dealer said these speakers sound great and are very detailed when driven at the levels mentioned.
Any personal insight is greatly appreciated.

Ribbon/cone hybrids often polarize opinion. I don't know the VMPS, but I love (and still own) the original Red Rose mini monitor with the "roof mounted" ribbon. Strictly speaking, this isn't the most neutral system out there, but it produces beautiful extended bandwith sound from a small box. IMHO, ribbons and cones can play nicely together but the result may not be for every taste.

Good Luck

for a small to midsize room, with just about any amplification, the ohm micro walsh will rule...and you will get a speaker thats way underpriced for its comparible performance.

I think all of the speakers mentioned in this thread are better than the VMPS.
