Hi, I just got the VG1 speakers around 3 weeks now. I had the Legend speakers, the one before the VG1. After listening for around 1 week to the VG1 speaker, I put back the old Legend speakers and Wow! What a difference the new speakers was! On the old speaker the sound stage was all over the place, it sounded muffeled. It sounded junk!!! And before I thought they sounded very good. The new speaker is so much clearer, bigger soundstage, big sound. Wow! I never thought it would sound so good. Right now I am listening to all my CDs, a lot of them I didn't play for years. The infomation that I'm hearing, I never heard before. I am so happy with my new speakers that I am upgrading my Dac from the Music Reference to the Uni Signature Dac. You should give it a try, I gurantee you you can never listen to your old speakers again, you will say, how could I listen to these and think that they were sounding very good!!! Good luck........Warren
