Anyone else using the VonSchweikert vr35 speakers?


I just purchased a pair of Von Schweikert vr-35 speakers and they are simply marvelous sounding. My previous speaker was the Tyler Acoustics D1 (retailed for $9800)which is a great value and easily performed with many much more expensive speakers. However, the Von Schweikert vr-35 is completely on a different level. The vr-35 was expressly designed to be placed against the wall which was the main reason I decided to change speakers. I am finishing my basement and my wife wanted a lower profile speaker so I started researching. I ran across a dealer who told me the vr-35 were stunning and he recommended them to me. I found out through some research that the VR-35 is using extremely high quality drivers made in Denmark and are assembled in California. All other parts are true high quality. The same drivers in the vr-35 are being used in a couple other high end speakers that retail for mega-mega-bucks. The bass is simply outstanding and sounds like you have 2 really good sub-woofers in the room. The vr-35 has a trapezoidal cabinet shape and creates a large wall of music that has to be heard to appreciated. I talked to an Audiogon member that sold his very expensive Magico speakers and when he told me the vr-35's were better I had a hard time believing him. However, after listening to them I understood why he made the comment. The vr-35's are very musical but it does take some time to get them placed. Moving them an inch in any direction makes a difference. Albert has done an amazing job engineering the vr 35's and deserves to be recognized for providing this type of quality/performance/price in the hi-end audio world.
