Getting my VLRs from John Rutan this week.  Going with the current model and will upgrade to carbon tweeter model as budget/desire presents itself.  Will report back with observations once they settle in.

The new signature model will have a carbon tweeter.  I am unaware of the current model will be upgradeable to carbon tweeter.

i seriously doubt it, i think the only retained component would be the cabinet.....but.. ?

not that I know anything..but.....IF I was laying out a VLR -Sig it would have

carbon tweeter
DBS crossover

and a VLR-7x

cabinet within cabinet stealth CF enclosure with less frontal area
Carbon both drivers
DBS filter
biwire
maybe an integral HRS coordinated stand....

they would not be inexpensive.....
Just set up and did very preliminary audition.  Great soundstage and articulation, even at low volume levels. Hearing things in familiar recordings unheard previously.  Doing a burn-in for a couple days, then will report back with further observations.  First class service and recommend from John Rutan at Audio Connection.  Highly recommended, very patient and responsive to many queries.
