| New Von Schweikert VR SR4 mk11 Cream or Crap ??? ...or perhaps an "easy out" tap bit might remove the grommet and another, a wee bit larger can then be inserted as a replacement. I've used the "easy-out" to remove busted bolts and screws where you couldn't lock onto them with anything like plier... | |
| High eff speakers? Sonata III, Super III, OR ??? tvad... the 4 ohm bit and old press bothers me. Oh, and the six grand part sort of puts me off too. | |
| BAT SS power amps? I can't give direct comparisons to many of those you listed as prospects. I will say this... the VK200 & SURELY THE VK500 W/bp, WHICH i PRESENTLY OWN, IS AS SOLID AN AMP AS i HAVE FOUND. aS NEUTRAL TOO.Every time I have made a switch in preamp... | |
| High eff speakers? Sonata III, Super III, OR ??? ...they got a trial policy now. | |
| New Von Schweikert VR SR4 mk11 Cream or Crap ??? Ozzy The nomenclature of the thread size is at the website... or was... the funny part of it is Albert says you can go to the hardware store to get any or all of the fasteners, screws etc. Then I happend upon the thread sizes of the spikes, either... | |
| High eff speakers? Sonata III, Super III, OR ??? Thanks ChezzI like the Bolero's looks and size. Specs to, but the LaFolia strikes me as probably the better speaker in the Silverline array... for my tastes.I've also developed an interest in the "Reimer" speakers... but don't know anything much a... | |
| New Von Schweikert VR SR4 mk11 Cream or Crap ??? Tvad... now that's funny. Very nice.I think though, in all seriousness, VSA product performance is not the issue. rather how issues are handled by VSA currently. getting a bigger piece of market shre by providing exceptionally performing and hence... | |
| High eff speakers? Sonata III, Super III, OR ??? Hmmmm. thanks duke. With the addition of the Thor MK II preamp, the degree of naturalness in my system has been elevated to no small affair. It's scary good... and as my office/equipment room is immediately adjacent to the listening area, the soun... | |
| High eff speakers? Sonata III, Super III, OR ??? Tvad - I think I saw that one already, maybe not. I did see one wherein Duke was telling you stuff about matching the amps impedance or something... I've read so many things these past few weeks my eyes are rectangles... and my ears are worn out..... | |
| High eff speakers? Sonata III, Super III, OR ??? Newbee I'll look into that bit. I didn't think impedance matching was that important between amp & speakers though. thanks for the heads up.Metralla I appreciate the notes on the SE III. I'm in no hurry at all, and might wind up with something... | |
| New Von Schweikert VR SR4 mk11 Cream or Crap ??? Tvad ...I agree. Though I can't help but think Mr. V is aware of the goings on with his service & Q.A. departments. I feel it's a people thing at VSA. A need for 'more' or more 'qualified' is simply evident.VSA product performance is fine, but... | |
| New Von Schweikert VR SR4 mk11 Cream or Crap ??? Joiseyguy I've had success dealing with VSA, myself. I believe I did say as much... once contact was made. in fact in refference to ozzy's current issue with the threaded gromet in the base of the top module, one of my issues surrounding my JR's w... | |
| New Von Schweikert VR SR4 mk11 Cream or Crap ??? If customer service is entirely quantified by access... I'd say there is surely a great deal of room for improvment at VSA.If however it is based upon what takes place upon contact with VSA, I'd have to admit still some room for improvement is nee... | |
| New Von Schweikert VR SR4 mk11 Cream or Crap ??? you know, "Ozzy" is right. We went through this on another thread about the JRs. In fact a dealer told me to use all four of the bass mods posts!. yep, it's true. take out the plates or leave them in, I heard no diff on the JRs. BUT do hook to the... | |
| Most Effective Tweaks The least expensive and biggest benefit in comfiguring a system is an open mind. Remain flexible. It costs nothing. A closed mind can be ridiculously expensive.From a value oriented perspective, isolation comes to mind. Some fancy wood footers (bl... |
