Boston Acoustics VR965

That $1500 is Canadian funds and was when the $ was about .65¢ :( I've been using these VR965 for over 5 years now, and they still sound the same (I think) as they did the first day! I was impressed by the great 'hidden' subs design. They have...

very good value! Would probably buy again...after shopping of course! They are good for all music genres...but only excel 80% of the time. (I think that is very good!)

I have had the 965s for about 2 months now. So far I have been very impressed. I initially auditioned about 8 to 10 different speaker models. I listened to Polk, Klipsch, Mirage, Paradigm, Phase Tech, Vandersteen, B&W, and Energy. Out of all of these...

Boston Acoustics VR965

In case you want a casual listener's opinion for a change, here it is. I have been looking to build a surround sound environment in my living room, but I had a very small budget. The answer was the VR-965. Not only were they the best sounding speakers...

Built-in powered subwoofers*Great sound across the spectrum*Design

The special cloth grill attracts a lot of dust
