New Von Schweikert VR 33?

Wow your a touchy one!
Ofcourse its my opinion.....thats forums 101. I auditioned the 4 Maybe 5 yrs ago and it was ok but nothing special for my tastes. If you and others like them then its all good, just dont take it personal when others dont.

"they are just plain and unremarkable". Wow. Have you heard them? I would say the Unifield 3s are pretty remarkable sounding and they look cool too.

I heard the VR 33's at RMAF last fall with fairly inexpensive Jolida gear. I thought they sounded as good or better than anything else I heard there in that price class. Made everything from contemporary jazz to rock and hard rock sound enjoyable and made me want to stay and listen more. If I were looking in this price range, they would certainly be on the short list. I don't understand why someone would post their comments on a speaker they have apparently never heard.

I never said I heard it my statement was based on the several models I have heard...I just dont happen to think that company does anything special. I hope it sounds better than it looks and would be interested to se how it stands up to the similar priced Vandersteen.

"I hope it sounds better than it looks"

The same could certainly be said about the Vandersteen 3A signature. The 3A and VR33 look more alike than different. I will not comment on the Vandies sound, as I have not heard them. I will say that I have liked the sound of the Vandersteen speakers I have heard very much. I am sure it would be an interesting comparison between the two.
