VSA speaker owners What did you upgrade to?


To all the VR owners out there, past and present, when or as you felt the desire to press on to another quest for speakerage, Exactly what did you press on and get?

Was it a big diff?

A little diff?

Glad you did it?

or wished you hadn't.

though I felt a need to ask other VSA owners these questions, anyone can chime in and perhaps we'll all get some other perspectives about loudspeaker changes.

I have another dedicated room in which I have a comparable system and am running Totem Mani-2s there. They're a nice contrast to the VSR sound.

This is what I would expect if someone wasn't moving up the VS line. In other words, it would surprise me a little to read of someone going from VS to Tyler, or B&W, or another basically similar dynamic box speaker unless there was a significant tonal difference.

I would not be surprised to read of a few people who changed speakers to go to a completely different design, i.e. high sensitivity/impedance box speakers, single driver speakers, planars or horns.
I can also see changing brands too, Tvad. Simply to gain some greater ease of use via standard configurations.

VR4 to VR8? yayyy you. Now that's a real step up, I would think. Figured why waste time, huh? Just get on up to the penthouse and dig the view. howwever at that price level, there is some serious competition elsewhere... so then

Why did you stick with VSA in getting the VR8'S? mONEY OR WAS IT SIMPLY THE SOUND?
I sold my VR4Jr for a pair of Hyperion 938 and never looked back. Not that I did not like the VR4Jr but the 938 are out of this world. Upgrading while saving money, how often does this happen?!

Alain, you are insane, you are going to get bashed on this forum for daring letting go of the VS line.
