| Von Schweikert VR-5SE Mfontana,Just to let you know, I heard the VR-4SRs driven with the VAC Phi 110 too at a dealer, and although it sounded wonderful, the VAC wasn't able to drive the SRs two woofers with authority, somewhat wooley and undefined bass. I own the VR-4S... | |
| VR4SR datalink It's best to use shotgun style bi-wire, or two stereo pairs of speaker cables to make the SRs sing. The Data Link does not sound as clean vs. going bi-wire, and the Link should be used temporarily. I have never tried using a jumper in place of the... | |
| PassLabs X250 X350 and X250.5 Hi all,Can someone explain to me why the lower model X250 would sound better than the higher model the X350? Please elaborate? Wouldn't the X350 sound/perform better than the X250 if one's system had a harder to drive power hungry speakers (in a l... | |
| B&W 804s vs. Von Schweikert VR4jr I heard both at different dealers with different (but similar class/league) gear and cables. My nod goes to the VR-4 JR. But as mentioned you should use a good amp on the JRs and also lead shot them and break them in at least 400 hours to hear the... | |
| Which cable is most important to spend money on... In my past experiences and in my own system, I have to agree with Samzx12.1. Source to Preamp interconnects2. Power Cables (on Source/Conditioner, Amp, and then Preamp)3. Preamp to Power Amp interconnects4. Speaker cablesThanks ! | |
| Thiels or Von Schweikerts I heard both the Thiel 2.4 and the Von Schweikert VR-4 JR. My vote goes to the VR-4 JR. I was more impressed by the Von Schweikert than the Thiel. Since you mentioned you can't audition them yourself due to your location, try to read the professio... | |
| VSA VR4 SR or JR as a match to my system and room I respectfully disagree with Drseid. I heard both the JRs and SRs in the same dealer in the same room with same gear and cables. The SRs are noticeably better. No offense to the JR owners out there, as I almost bought a pair myself cause they are ... | |
| Von schweikert vr4sr up against mahler I heard the Mahlers, although very good speakers, I ended up buying the Von Schweikert VR-4 SRs. There haven't been many speakers in the retail $8k-12k range that impressed me enough to want to buy them during my speaker search about 8 months ago.... | |
| Von Schweikert VR4 SR IV Great horn speakers, if done right costs a lot relative to the VS VR-4 SR. Also, some horn speakers are big, and people with normal sized rooms are not practical enough to house them. So unless you have the room and the money, you can get comparab... | |
| B&W 803D vs N802 Hi Audphile1,Certainly there can be numerous reasons why we differ on our impressions on the 803D. It can be gear,cable, or room related. However, my observations were derived from listening to the B&W 803D, N802,and 802D at the same dealer sh... | |
| Von Schweikert VR4 SR IV If you're looking for a speaker that can re-create a live music venue, and want a speaker that does all facets of the game well at a reasonable price, then the Von Schweikert VR-4 SR is for you. I highly recommend these speakers to anyone seeking ... | |
| How To Improve B&W N802 Bass Response? Try demoing some Analysis Plus Solo Oval 8 or Silver Oval In interconnects on your system. Or you can approach it via the speaker cable front - the Solo Oval 8 and Big Silver Oval speaker cables seem to work great on bass. The bass is tight, power... | |
| B&W 803D vs N802 Depends on what you want. The N802 is a little more relaxed/laid back type of sound compared to the 803D. The 803D has a more forward type of sound in comparison. The 803D has stronger bass output and a bit snappier/faster. The 803D also has a mor... | |
| B&W N802 vs FOCAL 937Be If you're going to spend about $4,500 and want to keep an open mind to other products, try looking into the Von Schweikert VR-4 JR or the Krell Resolution 2. The VR-4 JR will cost way cheaper than $4,500 on the used market, but would not be embarr... | |
| Help with speaker cables and interconnects If you are looking for a little bit more weight and palpability and slight warmth, try out the Analysis Plus Big Silver Oval speaker cables. Don't let the Silver fool you, this cables is not lean or bright, or the typical sound associated with inf... |
