Genesis V vs. 300

Anyone have experience with both of these speakers? I own the V but have not heard the 300. I would appreciate any input.

Thanks.

Jim

BUT, there's a problem servicing the Vs -- particularly the 4ohm mid-bass driver which, apparently, is not available any more. The BIG problem here is that the driver & cross-over PARAMETRES aren't available. If they were, we could find replacements...

Parts are scarce, but they do exist. J
