Jack is right.

You have a lot to look forward to. But save yourself the misery and break them in before trying to do too much. I spent way too much time on placement because they weren't broken in yet. So I really couldn't judge the best location by the sound.

Remember the 200+ hours mean "loud" music (don't let them clip). The owners manual has a procedure that helps keep the sound down by facing each other. It works.

Enjoy, you've made a great speaker choice, there's no arguing that.

I just heard these speakers a few weeks ago and was very impressed. Unfortunately I didn't have my normal auditioning CD's with me. I am strongly considering them.

I am a little concerned because the load is 6 ohms and I have an ARC tube amp.

One question I have is the "link" between the speakers. DOes that come with them or do you have to buy that if you don't want to bi-wire. Are the connectors special or are they RCA so you can jumper with a short pair of speaker wire.

Thanks.

Jumper "link" comes with the VR-4jr, at least
they did with my pair

It comes with the speaker but a set of bi-wire cables will sound MUCH better.

WOW!!! I just hit the 150 hour mark and the sound just exploded. Everything just opened up! The midrange bloom is palpable and the bass, well, I can feel it in my bones now--in a good way. The top end has filled out nicely too. I am still dialing in the position and have yet to add the spikes, but will do so soon.
