SnubWay - Noise Defender
Jungwoo KIM (Yongin-si, KR)
SnubWay: Widening the Soundstage

"First, I'd like to thank **Mr. Ace**. He was a great help with the delivery.

The **SnubWay - Noise Defender** has enhanced the audio system. A new level of sophistication has been added to the system, which was previously a straightforward 'Main Stream' setup.

Firstly, I feel like the **soundstage is wider**.
And I feel like it has captured the **subtle vibrations and noise**.

Frankly, I had been briefly tempted by Chinese-made products due to their price advantage.
However, **vera-fi-audiollc** clearly demonstrated the **technical gap** between those products and this one.

Thank you."

Vanguard Caldera 10" Active Subwoofer
Ian Haynes (Kings Langley, GB)
A great addition to my system.

I previously had a sub woofer that had come from a home cinema setup. Whilst it gave me extra base it was 'boomy' and limited in it's range. The Caldera 10 is a different experience altogether. I'm hearing bass on some recordings that I didn't know was there and it has firmness that I'd not heard before. It's extremely good value and a great addition to my system.

Absolutely Need These!!! Love them.

I purchased three Caldera 10's to go with my three pairs of Scouts. I love them, so I purchased 4 more to get small rooms 2.1 & large rooms a 2.2. I love speaker systems but I haven't had a good set up for years. I looked into this for months. I didn't know what my sound system was missing till I got the lower end filled in.

Great speakers!! After playing I purchased more.

Great speakers, right in my budget. I purchased one pair, broke them in, loved them, and then purchased 2 more pairs. I had the option of ceiling speakers but bookshelf sound so much better. The Scouts allowed me to get great sound and budget. I have them in several rooms now. 2.2 in the main rooms and 2.1 in the small rooms. When connecting a Caldera 10 it was suggested to put a HPF 70h on the Scouts. I haven’t been able to find a good low cost 70h, closest so far is 80h $25. I purchased (3) pairs of Scouts and (7) Caldera 10. So HPF is important to focus more on the mid and high’s. Really really like Vera-Fi Scouts and Caldera’s!!!

Warm and wonderful

The Scouts are a phenomenal speaker.
Starting with the gorgeous real wood veneer and cinder block build to it's warm and encompassing sound. Easily compete with or surpass speakers costing twice their price. Do yourself a favor and get a pair of Scouts ASAP

Sluggo - For Use with SDFB
Janek K. (Bialystok, PL)
Graphene sluggo and the burn in pain :)

First of all, thank you Mark for helping me to resolve a dispute with the Romanian distributor of Vera-fi products and my advise, buy directly from Vera-fi.
In the past, I was using Synergistc Research fuses, Orange included. Then replaced them with Verictum X fuse (fullbodied, slightly darker with excellent timbre). QSA Violet was the next one, better resolving, transparent with great clarity. And now, graphene sluggo for SDFB. I need to stress, graphene sluggo require extensive burn-in, Mark calls the process „cure” as more adequate and it takes about 300-400 hours which I confirm. I was burning them in continuosly and checking every 24 hours. Typical rollercoaster. After 250 hours I was not happy with the outcome, slightly bright and light sound, lacked body, weak treble I even considered going back to fuse in one of the components. I continued burn in, used PAD CD (System Enhancer Burn-In & Demag CD-R) to accelerate the process. After 310 hours (2 nights on PAD CD :) included ) bingo, I broke them: fleshed out, organic, holographic sound with excellent resolution, extended treble, open and airy soundstage. The brightness had gone. Slight fluctuations occured beyond the 310 hours mark but I knew what to expect at the end of the journey and I was fully satisfied with it. I’m happy I tried the Vera-fi solution. Sluggo eliminates the bottleneck allowing my system to breath, delivering „unlimited” current, improving bass extension and slam, improving dynamics and sense of realism.

Bold Claims for a Budget Sub?

I had my eyes on a Caldera 10 subwoofer for quite a while before I decided to take the plunge, but I'm really glad that I did. I initially had reservations for how low the price was for what it claimed it could do, but eventually a sale came along that was a little too good to resist and I purchased it for $149.

I imagine myself and quite a few other people ended up ordering around this time and it took some time before my order was fulfilled. Additionally, there were significant delays in shipments due in part to ongoing changes to US import policies, but Vera-Fi diligently kept me updated throughout the process, even responding to my emails I sent with questions. In hindsight, I am glad I was patient and waited to receive mine.

Though it took some time, in the end, I received a cute little compact subwoofer to pair with my budget living room setup and have been very pleased with how musical and quick it is, as well as how much it filled out and enriched the music for a pair of smaller bookshelf speakers. I don't think there is a better budget sub for a 2.1 stereo setup for this price. The Caldera 10 is a product that knows what it is and does it damn well.

Highly Recommended.

Hello Mark (and team),

I wanted to let you know that my order of Vanguard Scout Pair speakers
has arrived safely at my home in France.
I am delighted with the speakers and pleased that everything worked out
in the end.

Given the current situation, I am fully aware of the logistical
difficulties you have faced and are likely to continue facing, so I
would like to commend you on your communication, which helps us
customers understand the situation.

I would like to thank you again for our various email exchanges and for
the work you do every day in these challenging and tense conditions.
I wish you and your team every success in your business.

As for me, I'm going to go back to listening to some music (Neil Young,
for example) on your magnificent speakers.
Thank you, Mark.
All the best.

PS: I am now considering purchasing the Caldera 12 in its 220/240 volt
configuration.

Beautiful sounding speakers.

These are a great value speaker. They sound very nice to my ear, are built really well and with quality (real rosewood veneer). They are beautiful to look at too. Highly recommend. I've bought two pairs!

Vanguard Caldera 10 Duality
James Culver (Muskegon, US)
I'm really enjoying this dual sub set-up

I'm really enjoying this dual sub set-up. Using these in a two channel stereo system, replacing a single 12" sub (which was stashed in the corner). My mains are the KEF LS50 meta's, and they work well with the Caldera 10's. Still fine tuning the crossover freq & volume balance, but I'm prone to tweaking things just for the fun of it.
The Caldera 10's arrived in fine fashion, and were easy to set up. They look great and sound even better.

A solid little sub for the price

A solid little sub for the price. Its compact size makes it easy to place multiples in a room to help manage standing waves. The "auto-on" feature is practically useless—at low listening levels the sub won’t engage, and when you raise the volume it starts switching on and off in time with the music until it’s loud enough. I just leave it on all the time, which isn’t a big deal since the small amp only draws about 3 watts at idle. The inclusion of high-level inputs is a nice bonus at this price point, and the crossover slope is steep enough to blend seamlessly.

Vibration Black Hole - VBH
kenneth Mckillip (Bradenton, US)
VBH outstanding product

Using these on Marantz model 30. The VBH provides complete, across the spectrum draining of vibration noise, leaving clear, tonally right sound across the entire sound spectrum. Unlike others that I've tried, VBH works across the high, mid and lows evenly.
Tried some other products like Herbies, IsoAcoustics, Maple Shade, all of those helped but to me, they all sounded a bit uneven, working better on some areas of the sound than others. The VBH is just smooth and sounds tonally right across the whole sound spectrum to me. (Do remove your old feet and use directly on the amp bottom, don't put them under the cheap plastic stock feet.)

Absolutely clean and powerful little unit.

Great system -- purchased 5 scouts (one for center channel) and 12" sub

Great system -- purchased 5 scouts (one for center channel) and 12" sub. Scouts sound is clear and natural. Scouts and sub blend wonderfully. For music, the sub reproduces musical notes, not simply some deep thump other subs might offer. Work fine for home theater as well. Tight, concise sound,
