Cerwin-Vega VS-100B Single Floorstanding Speaker
Product Description
From the Manufacturer
Well, now it can actually sound just like THIS. It's a digital thing. A lot of today's music is played through sound-stretching digital processors (like synthesizers). Then it's recorded, mixed, and mastered. Digitally, to e xpand the dynamic range. Finally, this music shows up in your house as a digital disc you access with a laser beam. Do you really think your old speakers are up to it?
Enter Cerwin-Vega VS Loudspeakers. VS? It stands for Velocity Sensitive. And it means you'll hear every detail in today's music. From a subtle whisper to a sudden CRASH! As well as all the note-bending digitalia in between. This, is a speed thing.
A Velocity Sensitive loudspeaker has very fast "transient response".
You see, the faster a speaker can respond to the myriad dynamic changes in musical energy, the more accurate the reproduction.
There's no one particular key to fast transient response, but there is a combination. Our high energy magnet and voice coil assemblies work in swift precision with refined curvilinear cones, well-damped surrounds, and lightweight die-cast aluminum frames.>p? For starters, you can feel it in the bass. The 15" woofer in our VS-150 can take low frequency response clear down to 28 Hertz. While handling up to 400 watts of power. To be honest, this kind of low bass is the result of gaping holes in design. We've cut dual vents in the rear panels of our VS-120 and VS-150 speakers to reduce port compression and increase bass output.
What's more, our woofers are acoustically loaded (not unlike the musicians), such that the speaker is in perfect balance with the cabinet volume, as well as the port size. And Velocity Sensitive woofer cones have an improved stiffness to mass ratio. Meaning, they're light and at the same time, durable.
Our new dividing network is the result of our undivided attention. Cerwin-Vega "smart crossover circuitry" is computer optimized. So it instantaneously routes frequencies to the appropriately matched driver.
Smoothly (so you'll benefit from seamless driver integration), and quietly (our crossovers are acoustically transparent, and won't interfere with accurate frequency reproduction).
Enough quiet time, let's get vocal here. Our large diameter midranges (6 1/2" in the VS-150) will give you accurate vocal reproduction and great stereo imaging. Vibrant with clarity and presence.
Our tweeter family consists of three polycarbonate models (in the VS-80, VS-100, and VS-120) and a polyimide soft dome in the VS-150. As if that's not technical enough for you, we call them "balanced drive hybrid dome tweeters". You get all the benefits of a pure dome tweeter, like good off-axis response and stable imaging, along with high power handling and sensitivity. In fact, our 1" tweeter can make Madam Butterfly literally soar. To an audio altitude of 22,000 Hertz.
All this high technology is protected by our Positive Temperature Coefficient Device (aka PTC). This is your internal tweeter insurance policy. What's more, we've built in overall fuse protection for the VS-120 and VS-150. Better music through science. And carpentry. Our cabinets are internally braced to minimize cabinet vibrations. And maximize bass. As well as the life expectancy of our already beefy 3/4" composite board cabinets.
To that end, every VS loudspeaker is wrapped in a black ash or walnut finish. And backed by a single sheet of paper. Our five year warranty. Meaning every time you sit down in front of a pair of VS speakers, there'll be someone standing behind them.
From a company that, for over 45 years, has stood for integrity and quality.
And lots of long advertising copy.
Thanks very much for reading this far. It can be more than a little tough on the eyes. Our solution?
Do something nice for your ears. Listen to a pair of VS loudspeakers. There's all kinds of great music out there.

With the new advancements in the technologies of sound reproduction and bass boosting especially, your bass can now sound amazingly. It's a digital thing. A lot of today's music is played through sound-stretching digital processors (like synthesizers). Then it's recorded, mixed, and mastered digitally, to expand the dynamic range.
