    Zappapatton;

    Did you get the Boston Acoustics vr-M90's , and if so your thoughts on them. A rare speaker a bit out of character for BA.

     

    On a whim I ended up with a pair about 6 months ago & am surprised at how good they sound compared to many other speakers I've owned, And/ or listened to.

     

    Currently driving mine with a mxr-150. A musical/ capable combination.

     

     

     

    Unfortunately no I didn't.

     

    On the 3 hour drive to pick them up the seller started freaking out that he wanted to cancel the ebay sale, refund the purchase and have me bring cash instead.

     

    About 3/4 of the way there, he canceled the sale, refunded my money then said he would be an hour late and for me to go get cash while I was waiting for him. Seemed like a good time to go home.

     

    I'll definitely keep an eye out for a pair. I would likely mate them with my HR-772 for a garage system.

    You can copy all you want from me, however I would advise against copying my purchasing model.

     

    You see, I like to find people with unique items who really do not what to sell and then grossly overpay them. I then try to sell to people who do not know what it is and really don't want it. 

     

    Yes, it's true, I come from a long line of buy high sell low kinda men.

    Welcome Mr Friday.

     

    Some good advice I received was to buy, listen, sell and repeat until you find a speaker you just can't bring yourself to sell.

     

    If you live in an area with lots of used hifi gear you can really become an expert on what speakers you and your system enjoy... you could even change your name to the CraigslistENER... cause you'll be listening to all the speakers you bought on craigsli... sorry, it's been a dad joke kinda week.
