| Anybody hear the Von Schweikert VR-4jr at CES? Just to add my experience with the VR4jrs. I've had a pair since June and believe that they have stopped my upgrade fever for speakers. Period! Forever. They are warm without being colored, dynamic, detailed, sweet, intimate, punchy and extremely ... | |
| My Rogue 99 needs better isolation...please help. Until recently I owned a Rogue 99 Magnum and the best sound it produced was with the following: 2" hard maple shelf on top of Vibrapods with 1"x3/4"x3/4" zebrawood blocks between the maple shelf and the bottom of the 99 chassis (that's the chassis... | |
| Best copper interconnect cables For what its worth, here's my opinion. I have tried AudioQuest, Acoustic Research, Tara Labs RSCs, Kimber PBJs, Kimber Silver Streaks, Silver Audio Hyacinths and Silver Bullet 6.0s and have found that none come even close to Analysis Plus Copper O... | |

| Review: Rogue Audio 99 Magnum Tube preamp For what it's worth...My discussions with Mark & Mark at Rogue led me to believe that the front tubes in the 99 are one channel (can't remember which) and the rear are the other, with the signal gain tubes to the right (facing the unit) and th... | |
| Von Schweikert VR-4jr owners, your thoughts? I've had my VR4jrs for about 3 weeks now and they have about 250 hours on them. They are an outstanding speaker for the money - even at 2-3x the price. Very involving!! They blew away the more expensive JMLab Electra 926 and 936s, and Vandersteen ... | |
| Floorstanders over Suspended Hardwood-Help Please Your #3 solution is similar to what I did with my Vienna Acoustics Mozarts on a heavily carpeted suspended wood floor with very good results although with some differences.I placed a 1/2" piece of medium density fiberboard (MDF) - cut 3" wider in ... | |
| Scott receiver ++++ vintage electronics Actually, it is possible to pick up an HH Scott Receiver on ebay. I got a 340B tube receiver for $160. about 5 months ago. I replaced most of the tubes and had a tech check it out and make some adjustments which ran about $130. and I now have an o... | |
| Which Preamp for Bryston 4BST. BP-25 or Rogue 66 Alana,Good choice with the Rogue. I demoed both the 66 and 99 and ended up with the 99 bought as a demo which I have mated with a Bryston 4BST. I've just had it upgraded to Magnum and will probably keep it forever.My point is writing is tha like t... |
