Von Schweikert VR-1; What Amps are People Using?
I use two VR-1's for surrounds and three LCR-15's for the front trio in my HT setup. All are powered by IRD-MB-100 (le Amp) monoblocks. I ran the VR-1's as L,R fronts for awhile while I was selling off my Paradigm Ref 40's and I personally felt th... 
Von Schweikert VR2 vs. VR4 Gen III
Joy,Best of luck with your decision and I hope you had a fruitful call with Paul of VSA. Yes, customer service, and excellent dealer service in concert with the manufacturer, is what it is all about. VSA certainly provides that. Not to mention wor... 
Interconnects with Eichmann bullet plugs?
Empirical Audio and Bolder Cable.com.I use all Bolder M80 IC's and their digital coax with Eichmann plugs. Never had to use any hair dryer or heating aid to get mine on. Nice and snug fitting. Just be gentle upon first installation. YMMV.BOK 
Dedicated power lines-getting started
All semantics aside, seems it might be time to move off of this "mule" beating.I responded to Ernie's add over a month, and via e-mail, thanked him for assembling the CVH materials I had read about at AA for 2 years. Always wanted to get into DIY,... 
Analysis Plus Spker Cable Excellent Cable or Hype?
I have been using a bi-wire pair of Oval 12/9' for a couple of years and have no desire to change them out. I certainly have changed many things in my system (IC's, monoblock amps, power cords), but the AP's remain. BOK 
Any opinions on Signal Cable products?
Just received Signal Cables Magic Power PC's (have 2) for use on two of my nOrh Le Amp monoblock amps. The amps are for the mains in my HT setup. Center speaker Le Amp is using a HT Pro AC 11.A bit too early to pass an opinion along (only about 8 ... 
Good Value Component Video Cable?
Make that FOUR times on the Zu Megular. Better by a long shot over a $200 Monster Silver Video and a BetterCables Ultra (Canare).A very impressive video cable.BOK 
Help: Cable for surround and sub
I don't know your setup but I will toss this out, as it may fit. Surround cabling --- IXOS 6003 (I use it for my surround dipoles and it works). Don't recommend dropping $ on surround cabling as the discrete channels are not fed the same as your f...

How much money do you want to waste?
Has AR been offline ? 
You were pleased with AP Oval 9 but you upgraded..
I run a biwired pair of Oval 9/12's. I have no intention of any upgrade. Amp- WBT bananas, to T1 spades. Not bright IMO. Jon Risch bass traps and wall panels, as well as rear listening position treatment just did the overall trick.One either needs...
