Spendor vs. Von Schweikert?
Robm321,Does it mean not only spendors....Sonus Fabers Cremona Auditors, Sonus Faber Grand Piano, Totem Arros, Forests and Mani-2 are all colored speakers too ? (Bcoz I liked them better than even spendors and my preference is for colored sound) I... 
Spendor vs. Von Schweikert?
Robm321,I referred my opinions to my personal musical preferences. May be it is better for other music preference. Rememeber...we are comparing spendors and Von. If Chazro likes Spendors and asking for opinion to move to Von, my posts do make sens... 
Spendor vs. Von Schweikert?

Spendor vs. Von Schweikert?
Hi,I agree totally...totally with Dodgealum. I have listened to both Spendors ( S5e, S8e ) and Von Schweikert ( VR-1, VR-2 and VR4SR ). For my music preferences ( Sweet mid range, vocals and instruments ), Spendorfs are way far superior. Atleast f...
