VR-1s arrived today, exactly 7 days after I mailed the Money Order. Warren at newforhalf was great to deal with and speakers sound fantastic behind my Arcam amp so far. Can't wait till they get broken in a little more. Most of the discoloration is on the underside of the speaker as well  ;D

next step is building some stands in the next few weeks

i emailed back and forth with Warren - he took a day or so to respond each time but always answered my questions. i asked about pickup but he prefers to ship. nice guy and great prices - they take paypal as well but you need to cover the fees. im curious to see what other gear they have once they clear out the von schweikert stuff

I've emailed this guy and so has a friend of mine with NO reply. We were looking for VR1's. I saw his Ebay listing and he has 2 subs and a pair of VR2's but no VR1's. J are you happy with yours ?

he didn't have any more Vr-1s when i 1st contacted him a few weeks ago and just had one or two pairs of the B-stock - not sure if he has any of the b-stock still.

i've only had them one night but am very happy with my purchase so far :)

Thanks, like I said we have both emailed him so ..... we'll give him a bit maybe he works in mysterious ways ..... and obtains pairs from floating stray cargo from afar .... LOL

Good luck with them I'm sure you'll enjoy them for a long time to come.

Were yours B Stock ?
