These little Ushers have a couple of good reviews - was wondering if anyone has compared them to the vr-1's which I currently am running. Both would be used with a sub, so bass isn't too much of an issue. Thanks!
Unfortunately, I don't have a response, but I'm wondering the same thing - has anyone had the opportunity to compare the Usher S520 and the Von Schweikert VR-1. I would NOT be using a sub, so bass is a concern for me. Anyone? Thanks in advance!
Listened to the S-520 when helping a friend put together a system. Maybe it was the rest of the gear (Rega amps) driving the S-520 but I found them small sounding and bright. We ended up going with a DALI concept 2 instead, which I think is fantastic for the money. perhaps the best I've heard new at that price. I've lived with VR-1s for many years now, and I don't really think the S-520 is in the same league. though of course the VR-1 costs much more. On the other hand I heard the Usher cp-6311 at RMAF and here in chicago and I think they're really excellent speakers.
