| Are Von Schweikert VR-2s worth auditioning? Pardales, did you fill the chamber with lead shot? If so, how much per speaker? And what number lead shot works best?Also curious as to what your opinion of the midrange is? | |
| Von Schweikert VR4 Jr - any inside info? I can't exactly which Von Schweikert dealer I spoke with who gave me the info - he was also a big fan of the Vr2 - I also spoke with someone at VS that filled me in on the details. It will be interesting to read what everyone has to say about the ... | |
| Speakers for Home Theater/Audio for 8K Thanks for the web site address - interesting speaker considering all that comes with it. | |
| Are Von Schweikert VR-2s worth auditioning? I'll probably get some nasty comments, but I would purchase any Von Schweikert speaker that fit my budget - even without having first auditioned them. I think the VS speakers are that good. I would also consider a used pair of Aerial Acoustics 7b'... | |
| Speakers for Home Theater/Audio for 8K Psdermpath1 - you're right, I didn't know the Linkwitz could be ordered as a complete kit. I also don't know what they cost. Also, when I had my Von Scheikert Vr4 Gen III's, I didn't feel a center channel was necessary so I never got one. I do kno... | |
| Speakers for Home Theater/Audio for 8K I think I read your friends review on another forum - I have never heard Linkwitz Orion and I don't believe they have a setup for HT - it appears to be part of the do-it-yourself type of speakers - which is ok - I just know I hire someone to do my... | |
| Speakers for Home Theater/Audio for 8K I agree completely with Ellery911 - whichever speakers you purchase, keep them as far out into the room as you can - I also agree the B&W 802N is a great speaker - a few used prs on Audiogon are currently going for $5500.My thought process is ... | |
| Speakers for Home Theater/Audio for 8K Well, this is just my personal opinion, but if you placed the Denon and any number of separate amp/preamp combos that equal the price of the Denon behind a curtain and asked twenty people to give their opinions, the majority wouldn't be able to te... | |
| Recommendations on mid-fi speakers I would agree with above comment - your list represents 'entry level' which is a good place to start.Take a look at a used/demo pr of Von Schweikert VR2 - there is a review at AVGUIDE.com - there is a audio dealer (Canadian Hi Fi) on Audiogon sell... | |
| Von Schweikert VR4, VR4.5 upgrades?? anyone Take a look at the new VR4 Jr Von Schweikert is introducing at the CES show in Jan - the retail is supposed to be $4000. - when I spoke with someone concerning the Jr they said it more closely resembles the VR4 HSE - you would probably be able to ... | |
| Coincident Total Eclipse vs. Von Schweikert VR 4 Von Schweikert is introducing the new Vr4 Jr after the CES show in Jan - it might be worthwhile to wait - I called VS and found out it is a 2pc stacked design (shaped kind of like Avalon) with wood veneers - not cloth, a 3-way design - same driver... | |
| Soliloquy or Von Schweikert VR-1 I have to agree with the above recommendations, I would get the VR-1. I own the same Jolida amp and I've owned Von Schweikert speakers in the past and wouldn't hesitate to order any of their speakers - even without auditioning them.Best of Luck | |
| Speakers for Home Theater/Audio for 8K HelloI would take a look at Von Schweikert speakers, the company offers HT package deals to their dealers or if there is no dealer you should be able to buy direct, also they have a new speaker called the VR4 Jr coming out in Jan that you might wa... | |
| Meadowlar Osprey...How does it sound??? Zaikesman, you wrote an excellent response and I, along with others I'm sure, appreciate your time and consideration, you made good points on all counts. I'm just glad everyone agree's we all have different sonic requirements, taste in music and a... | |
| Meadowlar Osprey...How does it sound??? Gee, I didn't know I would have to defend myself. To Zaikesman: I wasn't recommending first-order crossovers, which isn't to say you wouldn't find them to your liking. I'm simply saying that I've heard two speaker co's with first-order crossovers ... |
