| tubes or no tubes I had very good tube amps over the past decade. Cary slm-200's, Wolcott Presence 220's, and as of a week ago the Manley Neo-classic 250's. I never could deal with the 3 month tube failure syndrome so I was turned on to the Jeff Rowland Model 6. I ... | |
| Preamp after Manley Steelhead? Bwhite it did annoy me that your engineer found "cheap" parts. At $7300 retail it makes you wonder. Anyway I do love the sound of the steelhead and the great phono stage. I was leaning on rolling the stock tubes with siemens and bendix as another ... | |
| Tube rolling ARC amps & Steelhead More updates please on the tube rolling for the Steelhead. I just replaced Manley 250's amps with 10 year Jeff rowland Model 6 driving the new Von Schweikert VR-7SE. The change was dramatically better. Manley couldn't produce enough bass or highs.... | |
| Rowland vs Rowland I just bought the Rowland model 6. Although it is 10 years old is is by far the best amp I have owned. I am driving the new Von Scweikert VR-7SE. They replaced the Manley 250's and the difference was stunning. Unbelievable deep tight bass, better ... | |
| I want profoundly better bass Von Schweikert Vr4 jr's may give you what you need. I had them in my room which is just as large and it almost did the trick. Big rooms need big speakers so I went to the 7's | |
| Can Piega P10's Be Placed Up Against The Wall? I owned the p-10 and my room is 24x30x12 cathedral. The best placement was 8 ft from back wall and 5 feet from sides. I sat 9 feet away for optimum sound. Excellent speaker but lacked the bass I was looking for. Probably to small of speaker | |
| Best Amps for Von schweikert 7se,9se,11se Jtinn, I am not having any problems with the sound. I am curious to find out what other listeners may be using. | |
| Matching Pre-Amp for Audio Aero Capitole MKII ? I agree with above thread. The sound has more dynamics run through a Manley Steelhead pre. The sound running the Capitole direct is still excellent and sounds more delicate. Take yor pick | |
| Best Amps for Von schweikert 7se,9se,11se Jtinn, the sound with the Manleys 250 on the vr-7se is outstanding. One always wonders if they are getting full capability. | |
| Name some full range speakers. Von Schweikert VR 7,9,11 | |
| Has anybody heard the Von Schweikert VR-7SE's Jjtoma My amps are Manley 250's and my room is 25x32 and 12 foot cathedral ceiling. After 10 years of hi end speakers these are the first to deliver an accurate and nonfatigueing sound in a large room. I will give a review in a few weeks. | |
| Do Any High End Speakers Boogie/Rock? BW 804 Blues Von Schweikert's play all music really well and can rock with the best.Many different models to choose from also | |
| 'great' bookshelf speakers for under 500? Paradigm Titans are excellent for around $200. Their drivers are better than some speakers over a grand. | |
| Has anybody heard the Von Schweikert VR-7SE's Geoh, If you go to Von Scweikert's website you will get all the info. I have the first pair and can bet their will be quite a few more sold. The only drawback for me was getting them out of the crates.Even they were handbuilt. After taking about 3... | |
| Has anybody heard the Von Schweikert VR-7SE's I have the 7 se's for about 3 weeks and the sound is absolutlely the best I could ask for. Call Kevin at Von Schweikert since he developed both speakers. I believe the ribbon,tweeter,and midrange are the same in both speakers.I have a fairly large... |
