MY Place sbayneI've now thoroughly broken-in the VR-7 HSEs (yep, had to break-in a 10 year old pair of speakers!). These are truly excellent speakers. Very smooth yet explosive. If you can get your hands on a go... posted over 9 years ago | View comment | |

MY Place sbaynePpeters - This is an attempt to recreate the sound of a Highend-Novum resonator (here is a link:http://www.highend-electronics.com/highend_novum.html) which retails for $2,500! Its basically a deep... posted almost 11 years ago | View comment | |

MY Place sbayneBernardo - I agree they mostly help with imaging/soundstage. By changing the angle of the top diffuser you can literally tailor the soundstage to your liking. As you problem know many people use ba... posted over 13 years ago | View comment | |
