| Von Schweikert Owners Hiend, the new VR-9Se are a totally new speaker compared to your modifications to the VR8 to make it some other model. My statement is made so as not to confuse other readers looking for insight on the new VR-9 | |
| Von Schweikert Owners I am also using the Dartzeel NHB 108 with the VR-7 se. The results are excellent. Definitely no need for more watts. The sound is effortless with this amp. I also used the Manley neo classic 250s and these were no comparison to the Dartzeel. | |
| Which speaker to replace Dunlavy SC-V? You will probably have to pay some bigger bucks to get the big sound of the Dunlavy V. I replaced mine with the Von Schweikert vr7se. It is three times the price but it is far better in every aspect. | |
| Looking for Jazz emsembles with a guitar flair Pat Metheny or Al di meola. I wouldn't call this mainstream jazz more like fusion. Each has been rock solid for over 30 years. Metheny being sugar coated is one of the funniest statements on this forum. Try his earlier albums. {New Chataqua} | |
| Need help choosing spkrs I've never heard I have bought all these speakers without hearing them. Dunlavy IV,IVa,V. Piega p-10,C-10 ltd. I now have Von Schweikert VR-7SE. They were all a gradual upgrade and all had great sound although different. If you have a good dealer who will take the... | |
| Solid State Preamp w/ PHono and with tube sound Dartzeel | |
| DartZeel compared to Pass Labs XA-160/200's I have had the Dartzeel for about 3 months and it came broken in. Only recently have the full potential seem to bust out. It extricates more music than any amp I have EVER owned. The Dartzeels 100 watts sounds more dynamic and powerful than amps w... | |
| Worst Name for A Piece of Equipment How boring is B&W. | |
| Dartzeel amp lives up to hype Has anyone tried different power cords on the Dartzeel amp? Which on brought out the best. | |
| OK WILSON OWNERS. HERE IS YOUR CHALLENGE I listened to the chimera's awhile back and while very musical they were not a full ranges speaker in my opinion. An extremely rolled off bass. If you like the upfront midrange they are the speaker for you. I prefer the top to bottom control of th... | |
| The best audiophile "gag" gift for X-Mas Did you allow the "Intelligent Chip" to break -in? Any responsible dealer should have told you that it needs 40000000000000 hours to sound its best. Maybe yours wasn't cryogenically treated. I am waiting for the upgrade at a higher price. | |
| Power Cords I used a Shunyata python on the Manley 250's. I also used harmonix. I never heard much of an improvement on the overall sound compared to the stock cord. Minor subtleties if your trying to hear something. | |
| Dartzeel amp lives up to hype The other amps I can compare the Dartzeel to are Manley -250,Wolcott Presence,Rowland Model 6, Cary slm-200. These are the most recent in my system which presently is Manley Steelhead, Audio aero Capitole II,Nottingham Anna/Hyperspace/Benz ruby2. ... | |

| "Off" vs. "Standby" and tube life How's that for concrete anaysis. I had many of the best tube amps over the last 12 years and had an over abundance of tube failure. Probably 6-8 times per year!Some very dramatic with capacitors going as well. Most manufacturers always complain th... |
