" VMPSs "magic" is staying in business for over 25 years,
something VS has failed at
" , or " Such is the difference
between a 25 year brand vs. a guy whose track record is to routinely go out
of business
...& start up again
" are nothing but personal attacks,
something that Audio Asylum forbids. I'd point out to your ignorance in not
presenting the facts as they were, but I'm afraid you actually know the truth,
so there's something much more serious here, namely knowingly distorting the
facts so you can make your point (if you distort facts about VMPS too, and I
mean the speakers, then is hard to believe that they "wipe the floor"
with anything, let alone Von Schweikert's). Here are some facts I'd like to
point out:

1. Everybody knows that VSR went out of business due to a flood not covered
by their insurance company.

2. Thanks to his credentials, Albert has been back in business for how long
now?, 3 years or something and makes speakers that others cannot compete with
so they try to attack him as a person. The current VSA services all previous
models.

3. How many high-end companies do you think would survive after a sudden loss
of several million $$$ ? Very few! God forbid should something like that happened
to VMPS... VMPS's survival for over 25 years is not magic, it's pure luck.

4. No ribbons are inherently better than cones. If Albert believed they were
better he would have used them. If I were to use your language, when it comes
to speaker design Albert wipes the floor with so many of the so called "speaker
designers" that it's not even funny. But you already knew that, because
otherwise you wouldn't have attacked him.

5. Clichés like Brand X "is turning the high-end speaker world
upside down"
or X "simply rules the high-end world right now",
or Y "cost at least 4-10 times what X will be charging" are
not uncommon these days but they are just a bunch of balooney. Are you a salesman?
