PFO Issue 22:
Well, sports fans, 2005 gave me a chance to return to the world of Von Schweikert Audio late in the year by way of their smashing VR-9 SE loudspeakers, a magnificent achievement in loudspeaker technology. I've been in touch Von Schweikert products over a number of years now, having owned the original VR-4's, the VR-4 Silvers, and the VR-6's. CES 2005 gave me a chance to hear the VR-9 SE's in a surround configuration, as I outlined in one of my CES reports (see PFO Issue 18, at
http://www.positive-feedback.com/Issue18/ces05dr3a.htm). I was really taken by the sound, and was able to arrange delivery of a demo pair with the help of my good audio friend, Jonathan Tinn. I've been listening to them continuously since September, and I can say that the VR-9 SEs are the finest speakers that I've ever had in my listening room. Transparent, utterly authoritative, highly detailed without fatiguing the listener, possessing an incredible ability to project and control a soundfield while nearly vanishing in the process, moderately high efficiency (94 dB/Watt/meter) and reasonable load (6 Ohm average), and almost ruler flat in my listening room…the VR-9 SE's have it all.
As I said, these are utterly the best loudspeakers that I've had in my listening room over the past 16 years.
Highest praise to Albert Von Schweikert and Kevin Malmgren for producing a world-class reference speaker that has transformed my listening room at PFO! David Robinson
