New Von Schweikert VR SR4 mk11 Cream or Crap ???

It would be good If Albert Von Schweikert could comment on this thread about its Customer service.

All the product Engineering in the world is usless when you have a problem and there is no Customer Service.

Tvad... now that's funny. Very nice.

I think though, in all seriousness, VSA product performance is not the issue. rather how issues are handled by VSA currently. getting a bigger piece of market shre by providing exceptionally performing and hence wildly popular pieces, has it's responsibilities.

Ditto. it is funny to see two prices at the same time. That's a mighty slim way to justify the 'sale' price, and even slimmer way to support the MSRPs value. Funnier still is now, anyone buying and later selling their units will surely use the over inflated MSRP (which no one pays) to support it's worth.

...funny, I don't feel as grungy as Tvad about my speakers. Maybe Tvad DID pay MSRP!

Newbee - sorry, you are definitely right that if you are on the personal recieving end of the "erractic" service, it is definitey crappy.

made in China, yet the price goes up.

treating all their customers as JOKES

Ozzy,

As an alternative to the spikes between bass module and m/t I highly recommend "Big Fat Black Dots" from Herbie's Audio Lab. I'm using four per speaker on my VR-4jr's with good results, primarily improved imaging and less grunge. http://herbiesaudiolab.home.att.net/bigfat.htm
Steve Herblein (a.k.a. Herbie) is great to deal with. I also use his tube dampers and cd grungebuster (great bang for the buck tweak).
