Von Schweikert VR-4.5 Opinions


Has anybody owned/listenened to Von Schweikert VR-4.5 speakers? Would a Bryston 4B-ST efficently drive them to loud levels in a 20 X 40 basement. I have heard that the
soundstage is very large and sounds like being there.
I own a pair of Chapman T-7's and really like the large
amount of detail that they provide, how much detail of instruments do the VR-4.5's produce. Also any opinions about
the midrange? Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.

I have owned a pair of 4.5's for 3 years. I love them. In fact, there was not a speaker at the NY Audio show for under $25,000 that could beat it. I have a Krell KAV 250 driving it with the Linn Ikemi CD player. The 4.5's are bi-wired. I just go the Linn and it made a huge difference improvement from an older Meridian CD/DVD player.
Check the cabinet beore you buy the 4.5's. The wood veneer on mine is starting to bubble. The sound more than makes up for it however.
