Well I just put down a deposit, but I have to wait 6 – 10 weeks to find out how good they made those tweeters work together. However the salesman assures me that they sound “phenomenal”, so I guess I needn’t worry. |

Well, after a long wait the VAF’s are in my living room and up and running. I’ve been reading The Challis Report (and similar “objectivist” slanted) audio equipment reviews in Australian electronics magazines since a kid, which have included many (always favourable) reviews of VAF speakers.
That’s why I was pretty much happy to buy theses blind. Anyway, they’re great sounding speakers; probably the least critical of placement in a small room of any speaker I’ve owned. The twin-tweeter arrangement has been made to work well. So long as one is a decent distance from the speakers, the vertical (not to mention the horizontal) listening window is huge. The bass is fantastic and they go bloody loud without audibly distorting. Here are some pics and two pages from the supplied owners guide describing the design philosophy.

I have auditioned VAF speakers at audio shows and found some of them a little forward in the midrange, I was always a little skeptical of the twin tweeter arrangement, I'll look out for them at the next show and have a critical listen

Happy listening.
What drivers do they use?
