Having some experience with both of these speakers ... my opinion is that the AZ sounds more transparent but also somewhat thinner/ cooler. VR warmer, fuller. Between the two with PS gear ... I would go VR. Some where in the middle of these two ... would fall the Dali Helicon 400 ... model 1 or 2. Model two somewhat more revealing/cooler. My opinion ... most fickle to get sounding good is AZ. Hope this helps.
Acoustic Zen Adagio vs VSA VR4jr
I would like to upgrade my current speakers.
My current set up is:
PS Audio GCP
PS Audio GCA 250 (2x biamp)
Raysonic 168
Quad 22l
I have heard both the AZ and VSA speakers although not in the same place so it is hard to make a comparison. I liked both.
I listen to all styles of music from Stravinsky to Porcupine Tree. I am running the Quads in a vertical bi-amp configuration. I realize the Adagios cannot be bi amped. The room is 12'x 20'. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
