Truth in Format

Now how do you analyze a loudspeaker?

Von Schweikert Audio VR-55 Aktive Loudspeaker

Michael More in "Capitalism: A Love Story" analyzes the corporation in terms of human psychiatric characteristics.

If we are to personalize the loudspeaker, then, which characteristics are we to apply? Which diagnostic criteria ...

Well, if we are to recommend one staunch loudspeaker this Christmas season, let it be the Von Schweikert Audio VR-55 Aktive Loudspeaker ($60,000.00 USD). As Marshall McLuhan said, "The Medium is the Message."

Not to massage the truth, the Von Schweikert Aktive is not Active: it's not an active Loudspeaker.

You would pair it with the Linn Klimax Solo Monoblocks ($ USD), although, in "Aktive" configuration it, the Von Schweikert VR-55 "Aktive" - only - requires 200 watts. An extra 300 would do. A Linn Klimax Exakt DSM ($ USD) and Linn Klimax Exaktbox ($ USD) - possibly - would thus complete the picture.


Linn thus would have a Korma.

Higher-Fi'ers may wish to investigate (look at) the VR-11SE Mk II (963 lbs, $225,000.00 USD).

Used FI afficianados may wish to look at the value in the chain, the Von Schweikert VR-10 ($ USD).
