Von Schweikert 4 Jrs, Rear Tweeter settings?


The folks that have these are deal with them, how do you set the rear tweeter? That is what level do you find best.

I have turned it off at times but I feel something lacking then. But there is a hint of smearing when its on.

Do you bi-wire these? Does it make very much difference?

Please tell me of your experiences with them.

THanks,

Drken,

I'm a dealer for Von Schweikert and have played around with the VRjr's quite a bit. The speakers sound best in our shop shotgun bi-wired. It does make a very nice improvement in transparency and coherence. The only deal is that you need to use the SAME cable for both the lower and the upper frequencies or you can hear discontinuities.

I prefer the reat tweeter set to its' "minimum on" operating position. Try sticking your ear to the rear tweeter and listen when it just comes on. That is the most perfect blend we have found in our room. As always, YMMV.
