VR-7 SE Reference Tower
Not Just Another Speaker!
Triple-chambered hybrid transmission­line bass loading provides very tight, deep bass using twin 10.5” magnesium extreme-duty woofers and two rear-firing 7” flared aero ports. Response is flat to 15 Hz!
Borrowing from our VR-11SE flagship, high frequency extension and clarity is provided through the use of an aluminum pure ribbon super tweeter, with variable gain control to allow for the perfect blend of air and detail in your room with your electronics.
Our proprietary Ambience Retrieval System enables concert hall depth replication, utilizing a rear-firing mid/tweeter driver fed with an out-of­phase ambience signal. The depth is adjustable with a calibrated control.
Available in five finishes: pictured is piano gloss black. Also available is dark red cherry, natural cherry, light maple, and walnut. Lexus Silver and other exotic wood finishes are available for an additional fee. Included are spikes and twin sets of WBT platinum plated binding posts for bi-wiring or bi-amping. Our exclusive Ten-Year Warranty protects your investment for a lifetime of musical enjoyment.
Every Listening Session Becomes
An Event Not Soon Forgotten…

Spectacular Transparency, Unparalleled Performance….
The search for the Holy Grail in loudspeaker design has led to new technology developed for the ground-breaking VR-7SE Reference Tower. Acoustic Inverse Replication theory developed by Von Schweikert enables the VR-7SE speaker system to closely reproduce the original sound-field recorded by the microphone. The holographic sound­stage image is beyond comparison; depth is adjustable via our exclusive rear-firing
Ambience Retrieval System with Dimension Control.
New driver technology is utilized, including aerospace composite transducer diaphragms. The midrange driver cones are composed of Kevlar, carbon fiber, and cellulose acetate pulp, yielding a well damped diaphragm with a very high Young’s Modulus (ratio of weight to stiffness), leading to a new reference standard in clarity, without the added ringing found in some of today’s leading metallic transducers. The tweeter is the Scan Speak dual concentric ring Revelator, fabricated of silk with a clamped dome, enabling near perfect reproduction of high frequencies without the typical break­up and distortion associated with common dome tweeters.
These diaphragms are driven by copper clad Low Distortion Motors utilizing long throw voice coils and extra-large magnet assemblies, ensuring very high dynamic range and smooth response at high volume levels. This combination of ultra-light/ultra­rigid diaphragms driven by huge motors results in goosebump sound quality that has to be heard to be believed!
