VMPS Super Tower Speakers Audiophile - (Benson, AZ)  $900

http://tucson.craigslist.org/ele/5252071532.html





"VMPS Loudspeakers featuring high quality drivers . I don't know the exact model.

The speakers sound good and work well near the rear wall and don't sound good out in the room like some speakers do. They meausure 51"H , 19"D , 18.5W. The down firing passive radiators were refoamed and all the driver units look good and function properly. The speakers are mirror image and the other speaker looks just like the one shown. They are quality oak veneer for lasting beauty.  The sound quality is very good indeed and well balanced from top to bottom. They can be somewhat fussy getting them positioned correctly.  But after you do they sound great!

Priced low and only $900.00 firm. No trades thanks."

VMPS RM-2 Speakers  -  (Kenosha, WI)  $1000

http://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649122780-vmps_rm2_speakers/





"I have a set of RM2s for sale. They have the light oak finish with black faces and black cloth grills. They are in excellent condition. These speakers have the FST ribbon tweeters, Neo Panel midrange, 12” Carbon Fiber cone woofer and a 12” down firing passive radiator. Two sets of binding posts allow for Bi-wiring or Bi-amping and include L pads to adjust treble and midrange output. Since the passing of Brian Cheney, VMPS has gone out of business and these speakers are no longer available but the last list price for a set like this was over $3,000.

Specifications
Bass- 30cm (12") woven carbon fiber, 30cm (12") Passive Radiator
Mid:- two rectangular 10 x 20 cm (4 x 8") Neo ribbons, 280 Hz - 6.9 kHz
Treble:- FST, 6.9kHz - 30kHz
Impedance & Sensitivity:- 4 Ohm (3.6 min.) 91 dB/1W/1m
Power handling: - 300 W rms / 4 Ohms, 20 W min.
Frequency response: - 22 Hz - 25 kHz +0/-3dB
Dimensions & Weight:- 114H x 38W x 41Dcm, 55kg (45"H x 15"W x 16"D, 120 lbs)
Output levels and distortion:- max. 1% THD fullrange/1 W, max. 112+ dB SPL / 1 m

I have 5 sets of VMPS speakers plus a LRC and a Larger Sub. The only reason for this sale is to downsize my living room system from a 5.1 to a 2.1 system.

Speakers are too big and too heavy to ship so local pickup only. I can deliver these speakers in the Milwaukee/Chicago area with upfront payment and if you cover the gas costs. $1,000


I also have a VMPS LRC (Large Ribbon Center) for sale in a different post (I didn't see a LRC in a 2nd post.  This 'may' have sold?)."

Speakers are sold.

I have a friend in the Santa Barbara area who might be forced to sell his VMPS Dorne Dibble Special RM40s.

Seems his wife is looking to be his EX, and he needs to downsize.

INFO:

DORNE DIBBLE (maker of the RM/x) cabinets
Gloss Black
OXO (outboard XO)
Auricaps

These are thicker cabinets and may weight 20-40# more than the standard RM40s.

I will try to get some idea of how much he wants.

Acoustat 1+1 Loudspeakers & VMPS Subwoofer -  (Fair Haven/Detroit, Michigan)  $850

http://detroit.craigslist.org/mcb/ele/5111075917.html[/url
Is the sub still for sale?  I used to have an awesome VMPS 215 sub with the VSS upgrade.  Should never have sold it.  Does the sub have the built in amp?

Thanks for your reply,
Bob

Hi Bob,

Thanks for the inquiry, concerning a VMPS sub.  But, none of the VMPS speakers, in my For Sale thread are mine.  I just post the ads, to help out anyone looking for VMPS speakers.  I wish I did have all those speakers!  That'd be awesome!

Good luck,

Stimpy

Oh yea, that 215 was an awesome sub!  I'd miss that too!    :cry:

Yes, I agree. Looking at what is available and the pricing, my rm2s were a great deal. The guy who bought them drove from Texas to Wisconsin to get them.

He is a very interesting guy, has a few sets of VMPS speakers including some RM50s. He commented that he thought the RM40 was the sweet spot in the VMPS line.

VMPS Ribbon Dipole Surround-Super quality surround sound audio - (Seattle, Washington) $800.00 OB

http://www.ebay.com/itm/331684323929?rmvSB=true








"Fantastic pair of surround sound speakers that use the hybrid, ribbon and diaphragm technologies in such a way to produce smooth and super-realistic sound across the entire spectrum. These ultra-high fidelity dipole speakers are designed for the back-surround speakers in 7.1 setups but can just as well serve as the 5.1 surround speakers.

Read this review of same technology in main towers speakers from VMPS.

http://www.highfidelityreview.com/vmps-tower-ii-se.html


For the all-important rear and surround channels, which in Dolby Digital carry a full-range signal, we have developed the VMPS Ribbon Dipole Surround. VMPS Home Theater is compatible with DTS, Dolby Digital, Sony and Pro Logic encoding systems; if you have a separate processor, or an A/V receiver which allows you to choose mode, we recommend settings which process the signal the least.

For a complete A/V system, start with the best main speakers you can afford. Add the center channel, then the Subwoofer, and finally the surrounds.

Specifications

Bass:  - 16 cm (6") WCF Megawoofer bass, front reflex loaded                             

Mid:  - two rectangular 10 x 20 cm (4 x 8") Neo ribbons, 280 Hz - 6.9 kHz

Output levels and distortion:  - max. 1% THD fullrange / 1W, max. 110+ dB SPL/1m

Finishes:  - standard lite oak, dark oak. Optional

Some cosmetic scratches and slight edge scrape as shown in the pictures. Does not distract from the overall beauty of these speakers and has no effect on sound quality."[/left]

VMPS RM-1 speakers - (Santa Rosa, CA)  $750

"Modified RM-1 towers in excellent condition. Comes with 2 extra planar midrange units for future repairs. Biampable, adjustable mid and tweeter levels. Incredible sound and awesome bass. Had the stock woofers replaced with expensive Peerless units and had the system re-tuned by Mike at Soundscape (speaker designer). Bought for $650 used (great deal at the time) and spent $700 modifying properly. I have 12 pairs of speakers total (all kinds) and need to thin the herd. These are the only ones of real value and need the money for kids college."
