INTRODUCTION
Thank you for investing in a Virtual Reality speaker system designed by Von Schweikert Audio. Used
properly, the VR-5 Anniversary model will give you many wonderful years of exciting musical
reproduction, closer to the emotional truth of the composer, performer, and producer's intent. In order
to fully benefit from the VR-5's powerful magic, please read the following instructions thoroughly.
Although the VR series may appear to be conventional speakers, they have been designed to work
with the listening room. Being a Room Interactive design, there are certain setup procedures which
must be followed. The VR series are engineered to replicate the recording microphone's signal in
reverse, allowing the original sound-field to be recreated in your home. This technology is proprietary
and will allow the full emotional content of the original performance to be heard by listeners
anywhere in the room. Please see our White Paper for more technical information on the design. As
with all high tech designs, there must be a commitment from the user to fully utilize this product. The
following instructions will enable you to achieve world-class sound.
