Von Schweikert VR2 vs. VR4 Gen III


Has anyone used both the Von Schweikert VR2 and VR4 Gen III's? I was thinking about buying the 4's, but the rep over at Von Schweikert suggested the 2s instead. Tried to get him to give me a clear aswer why, but I realized he never really did. How would you compare the two? Can you see a reason someone might want to go with the 2s instead?

I own both the VR-2 and the VR-4. Anyone who tells you to buy the 2 instead must have a pretty good reason. Maybe its your electronics or room size.
In terms of performance, they both make good music. The 2's are kind of silly for the price, with bass down below 26Hz. That's velodyne kind of bass, and in a loudspeaker that also had great soundstaging.
The 4's are a completely different animal, they sound alike as one would hope, since they should, tonally, etc. But the 4 is more dynamic, and much more textured.
If you need real help buying, email me. I can direct you to the right person.
