I own the Swifts, but have not heard the VR-1's. The Swifts will have more bass and save the expense of good stands for the VR-1's. By all accounts, the VR-1's are also great speakers, so as always, it comes down to your listening preferences and how the two speakers might fit in your room.
Meadowlark Swift vs. VonSchweikert VR-1
Interested in both speakers but don't know which one to get. Please give your observations and/or opinions. I Listen to just about everything except hard rock and heavy metal. Associated equipment is a Plinius Integrated and Philips 963 DVD player. These are for a bedroom system. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance...
