Anyone using Von Schweikert's w/ Musical Fidelity?


I **think** I've finally settled in on a system I'm really happy with! I say "think" because my system seems to constantly be in a state of flux... DAMN YOU, AUDIOGON!!

I'm curious though if anyone else has paired Von Schweikert speakers with Musical Fidelity amps and what their opinions are? I read a lot about a synergy between MF and B&W, plus a few others - but haven't seen much in regard to Von Schweikert paired with these amps.

I've got the VR-1's paired up with the A300 integrated and they sound better to my ears every day. I've barely got them broken in at around 100 hours and, literally, can't wait to get home and crank them up.

Yes. Cd/Pre 24 and a3cr amp through VR1s. Very pure with surprising bass response in my room. Superb reproduction of good orchestral recordings despite the small size of the VR1.
I've been playing the VR-1's pretty much non-stop over the weekend and I've got to say that I just couldn't be any happier with this setup. Playing anything off my Rega P5/Rega Exact combo is a joy.

I'm in total agreement with Teeshot, the bass is simply astounding - tight, fast, with not even the slightest hint of boominess. The high end is perfect - not bright at all, well controlled through and through, and the midrange is amazing.

Steve999_1 - how's your system coming along? I'm curious because I've read that the A308 and A300 differ quite a bit in overall sound.
Which VR ?

I am using the creek 5350se with my vr2.
Excelent combo and I believe the creek characteristics quite resemble the MF one.
I have a pair of VR-1's on iF Designs custom made stands made specifically for the VR-1's (nothing else in the way of stands comes close to the performance of the iF stands), with a Musical Fidelity X-A2 integrated amp with excellent results.
My front-end is a Teac VRDS cd player and I also have the Von Schweikert VR-S3 subwoofer which I have used before with the VR-1's with great effect but we have recently moved and my new listening room layout will be designed around using only the VR-1's without the sub.
I would like to try the Musical Fidelity X-A200 mono-blocs in this system but they still sell second-hand for silly money here in the UK so that will have to wait.
