Cool little toys

Thanks for the info Dean. You possess a far better memory than I to recall a blurb in a mag from almost 3 years ago! I'm impressed!

Don't be. But for you, that info would have been worthless. My head is packed with trivial info but I'm always getting into trouble at home because I can't remember what my wife said yesterday.

On a more serious note, I finally tracked down a Von Schweikert dealer close enough to audition the VR-1. I was listening to some Revels at a shop yesterday. I told the salesman, who's a super nice guy, that I was looking for something about half the price of the M22s and easier to drive. I asked him if he had heard the VR-1s and he told me about a friend of his one state over that carries them. He told me frankly that he didn't have anything in the $1000 range that was comparable. One day when I've put my teens through college I'm gonna drop some serious $$$ in his store. You don't see honesty like that very often.

Boy, it sure makes a world of difference when you find a dealer that you can trust and enjoy working with, doesn't it? My VSA dealer is a lot like your guy and I have every intention of buying my HDTV through him and maybe, after I'm old and grey, I'll pick up some of his BAT and Hovland equipment too! Maybe you'll get an opportunity to hear the VR1's over the holidays. Let me know what you think.

Thank you both for reafirming my faith in the consumers of America. We try to give the exact same service you have described but usualy get passed over for internet discounts.
Thanks!
