Hi all,
My eyes have been opened by a friend to the VAF speaker range....an australian company that you have to order exclusive from their South Australia factory.. Can anyone give me any feedback on them. They look nice, the quality is meant to be exceptional..... I had them on a short list with Whatmough, KEF, Dali |

So to answer your question I have heard their range and even toured the factory with the owner Philip Vafiadas who is a very smart cookie and knows his stuff. They are a very good product based in South Australia. They come in kits or pre-assembled. What you need to do is work out what you want the speakers for (HT, Stereo music, bookshelf etc), what size room you have and what your budget is. Then the only question is what are you going to use to drive them with. Now I see from your IP address you are in Sydney (Sutherland?) so someone a lot closer would be http://www.equinoxaudio.com.au/ they are located in Vineyard out near Richmond. The owner Rick is a great guy to deal with and may be able to help you with your purchases and arrange for an in home demo. So I hope this helps. Regards TT |

Regards TT Thanks for that actually i am from Windsor...so that place is only 5 minutes drive...so that i can do this weekend. I was unaware of Australian pages, so i have been checking these ones out for a few weeks..... LIke i said i like the look of KEF's and they seem to rate well, i just want to hear them, and then compair them to the VAF's...two mates of mine have the VAF's and they say they are extremely good value for money....I just hope the amp budget i had assigned of 1000 is enough...as i was planning on getting the ONKYO SR602 for its multi zone at a cheap price. I know teh oNKYo does very well with teh KEF's as i have heard this numerous times in reviews. |

I have answered some of your posts in aus.hi-fi. I have contacted Rick at Equinox and suggested he contact you. He is a very nice genuine guy and his gear is pretty good to. So organising a home demo would be very easy. In your price range you need to hear the Aphelions. Regards TT |
