Von Schweikert Owners

i owned the VR9SE's for the last 15 months; they were just shipped to their new owner. i have VR11SE's on order and currently i have VR7SE's on loan and am breaking them in as i type this.....so i have a bit of Von Schweikert experience.

as all the Von Schweikert's are relatively efficient and have benign impedences you don't need a 'mega-watt' giant ss amp to get full dynamics. you also need a very natural sounding amp with great clarity and neutrality since the Von Schweikert's are so revealing of amp characteristics.

the darTZeel NHB-108 is the best sounding ss amp i know about and my amp of choice. it matches the needs of the Von Schweikert speakers perfectly. i could not recommend it higher.

I heard the 5SE with the Pass X-600s,the Pass seems to compliment the VSAs.I enjoyed the Lamm monos on my VR-6s.I know it's a hybrid.

I am also using the Dartzeel NHB 108 with the VR-7 se. The results are excellent. Definitely no need for more watts. The sound is effortless with this amp. I also used the Manley neo classic 250s and these were no comparison to the Dartzeel.
