Von Schweikert VR2 or Soliloquy 6.3 ?

I have the VR-1's in Hazelwood and they are slightly darker than my natural polyurethaned Red Oak hardwood floors but are so close, they blend right in.

Thanks for the responses
I ended up ordering a new pair of the VR2's in African Hazlewood.
Looking forward to getting them.
Thanks

I've listened to both and liked the VR-2's the best. The highs on the Soliloquy were too agressive (not sure if they had the recommended 400+ hours of break-in or not). The VR-2's are also very detailed in the treble, but not as harsh sounding. You can toe-in the VR-2's to get pinpoint imaging but still have a huge soundstage due to the rear adjustable tweeter. The VR-2's also had a fuller, natural sounding bass but still remained extremely fast. The midrange seemed pretty close on each.

Hey there Sedona,

I'm currently trying to decide between the VR2's and several other candidates, mostly costing a little more.
I'm new to the audiophile thing, but for what its worth the VR2's are on my short list. They wern't set up as recommended in the demo I heard them in, (you're supposed to fill them with sand or lead shot, and these weren't), but even so, to my ears, the base is articulate,solid and punchy, yet they sound nicely musical. Another caveat- I concentrated on big orchestra classical stuff in my demo, and less rock and jazz.

I havn't heard the Soliloquy 6.3's, so I cant comment on those.

Of speakers I've heard, Vandersteen 2eSigs or 3aSigs would be very high on my list for jazz, but they're less adept at classic rock. I suspect a lot of nice speakers will have trouble with the rock since recording practices tend to be a little whacked in that genre.

Good luck.
