I see there has been no response yet, so I'll add my thoughts. I have not heard the Spendor but own the VR-1s in a small secondary system and recommend them highly. They are especially good at soundstaging, detail and mid-range. I appreciate them more for strings, acoustic music, and voices. Good luck!
Von Schweikert VR1 against Spendor 3.5
Hi
I think this 2 of the best mini monitors under 2000, Im trying to decide for one so any help would be great.
My system is all tube, power CJMV50, pre SFL-1, CD Rotel 991, and DAC CAL Alpha.
I used to have a pair of Triangle Celius 202, the 2 year old series not the new one. And my system lacked of musicality and soundstage. Now, I have tried the Vr1s and IM impressed with the soundstage and depth. But I think I have lost some dynamics. I can notice listening to rock.
I havent listen to Spendor because here in Peru we dont have autorized dealer. So any help to decide between the Vr1s and the Spendor 3.5 is greatly apreciated.
Thanks
