Von Schweikert opinion and help.


Hi,

I have an opportunity to purchase a still new in the box pair of VR4SR- MKII speakers in african hazelwood finish for about $5,000. Is there another set of speakers new in that price range that would compare favorably or is this a deal that is too good to pass up? I understand that it is a discontinued model as the MKIII is now available. I called the factory and they said that an upgrade is available for $4,000 if I wanted to do so in the future.

Please help quickly, as I have to make up my mind fast.

Wow the original Mk1s are better? Did someone say that? They are like 4000.00 more. I had the Mk1s and I thought they sounded pretty great. I could never get the bass quite right in my room. Lots of deep bass but not to much midbass.

I'd say 5000.00 is a pretty good deal. I would hope however that the Mk2s are significantly better at such a higher price.
