"I’m selling my VMPS larger sub. This sub has the upgraded 15" Ultra Woofer with an upgraded passive radiator and the Parts Express 1000w amp. This sub is amazing and can play to 17Hz. This is a great sub for music and home theater and has received many praises from audiophiles. I also have all the original woofers and passive radiator if someone wants to match it to an existing VMPS sub for a pair. Local Pick up only because this thing is a beast and weighs over 150 pounds and dimensions are 24”x31”x19”."

 Vintage VMPS smaller subwoofers sub -  (Walnut/Inland Empire, CA)  $400

http://inlandempire.craigslist.org/ele/5172476798.html





"I have for sale a pair of VMPS passive subwoofers. These are in great condition and sound terrific. This is a 12" diameter non-powered subwoofer with a 12" active radiator in front and a 12" passive radiator in bottom. VMPS calls it their "Smaller Subwoofer" It measures 16" wide, 16" deep and 27" tall with a nice walnut cabinets.

VMPS has been known for making outstanding sub woofers and speakers for nearly 3 decades. The subwoofer is rated at 8 ohms and the frequency range is 28-150Hz. These will take just about all the power you can throw at it (up to 250 watts rms) and the bass is really tight.

I had all the drivers (main and passive radiators) refoamed a few years ago by VMPS themselves. I removed the speakers from the cabinets and shipped them. The passive radiators are mounted in a "slot" at the bottom of the speaker cabinet. VMPS informed me that the bottom of the cabinet needed to be knocked off to access them, then screwed back on when replaced. I've shown the bottom with the screws in the pictures.  (No picture).

Asking $225 each or both for $400

If the listing is up they are still available."

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

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?)."

http://southbend.craigslist.org/ele/5213181363.html








"we had this hooked up for a while and it does work. I went and got a current subwoofer and now this is just sitting in a spare room. I don't know much about audio visual stuff but I was told that this is an old subwoofer and that it's probably worth some money. I won't be able to answer many questions, but I included a picture of the name of the brand so you can check it out for yourself."

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

http://sfbay.craigslist.org/nby/ele/5212821230.html









"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."

antique subwoofer   

Well, if that's an original sub, I'm pretty sure Brian released it over 30 years ago.  Maybe not quite antique, but certainly vintage.

[PMAT]

Hi stimp, the RM-1 sale is mine. I have them listed here on the site as well. What do yo guys think of my pricing?

[DFaulds]

What Peerless woffers did you use in the RM1s?

[Stimpy]

Hi stimp, the RM-1 sale is mine. I have them listed here on the site as well. What do yo guys think of my pricing?

The price looks good.  Cheaper than most 626's. 

Also, are you still using the original passives?  I was just wondering if there was a newer, longer throw passive, available for the RM-1's?

Otherwise, GLWTS!   

[PMAT]

I can't remember the model of peerless drivers but the tech had no limits on budget. The passive couldn't deal with stronger drivers and would bottom out. I hated putty adjustments so I had them ported and tuned.

VMPS RM-40 Mccassar Ebony finish TNT caps, boulder wiring, mega woofer upgrade  -  (Madison, WI)  $2500.00

http://www.usaudiomart.com/details/649221391-vmps-rm40-mccassar-ebony-finish-tnt-caps-boulder-wiring-mega-woofer-upgrade-250000-no-shipping/

  I didn't intend to sell these fantastic speakers at all, however I have made so many other recent audio purchases that I need to thin the herd. If there is no interest then I'm ok with that as well as I really love the sound of these speakers. I cannot ship these, they are 230 lbs each and are 66" tall. The finish is macassar ebony and include the megawoofer upgrade, TNT caps and bolder wiring. I have included the picture of the largest scratch that I could find and I personally think it looks worse in the picture than it really is. As I am the second owner, the original owner did give me a set of the original drivers before the woofer upgrade. I believe he gave me 4 but I will have to check. I am located in Madison Wisconsin. Price is $2500.00.

Audiogon bluebook on these speakers private Party   
$3,076.03 and Average sale is $2,874.79 so I feel that these are priced fairly

If any SERIOUS interest then please let me know
Thanks for looking
