I used to visit stereo shops back then just to rock the Cerwin Vegas and dream of the day I could afford them. My first purchase after getting my first real job was a pair of CV speakers. Still have them and they still sound great 30 years later.

I had a pair of JBL A180S They are. nice, but when I hooked up a pair of SL-12's it was like where in hell did that great bass come from? I was lisnin to Eagles Lyin eyes an I tell ya it was amazing what those 12 inch woofers could do. My neighbor thinks I have a piano as those 15 inchers really make the pianos longest strings sound like they are in ur living room. Beethoven would really dig his Moonlight Sonata played thru my SL-15's

I saw these on sale and came to YT to find a solid review where I could also hear them in action. Excellent video. Exactly what I was looking for. Straight, to the point and from the heart. And that last part, from the heart, is most important when comes to sound system equipment cause we buy this stuff with our hearts, not our minds.

I had a pair of 12"cerwin vegas in the 70s I don't remember the model but they were great! in 79 I went to a stereo show at universal city and the CV demo room had a wall of speakers and they were playing Frankenstein, what an experience! On a side note they used CV speakers in the movie earthquake in the 70s and actually put a net over the audience to catch anything falling off the ceiling of the pantages theater

Bose has always been popular with the masses. Cerwin Vegas has always felt like part of a club that knew better. In process of setting up a media room in my basement and it's time to start rockin the CV's again. Been too long. Want something better than the sound bars deliver.

I have a set of those, powered by a Crown XLi2500, it's 500wpc @ 6 ohms. They freakin' thump, and sound great. I'm old school too, graduated in '89, I love that big 3-way sound. My wife allowed me to upgrade a couple years ago and as soon as I saw them I knew they were what I wanted. I've owned Vegas in the past, currently own a set of VS-100s. I was gonna buy some old ones but for the living room we decided on brand new. Love them, and to be honest, I think they sound just as good or better than most comparable CVs I have heard over the years. That's saying a lot because I am a huge CV fan.

They look so good in that room! I have a pair of LS-12's and first used in my 9ftx9ft bedroom for the better part of a year. I couldn't get what I wanted out of them due to the room. I have since moved and now have a living room for them and its a crazy difference! I also used to run my CVs off a Sony AVR, all receivers say 100w/channel but I know thats not true. So I did some research and scrounged some funds to purchase a Crown XL1500 amp. Now the CV LS-12s make my windows vibrate. Up to 450wpc in stereo! forget the neighbors. I would highly recommend running an amplifier, not just for more headroom but more punch and making those CVs come alive!

I bought a set of these back in 2001. Spent the better part of 10 years being abused as my practice speakers for DJ'ing and home theater. I've reconed one of them and replaced the tweeter in another. They still sound great. Previous home owner put a rockwall in the lower level of my house. I floated a new dry way ceiling and had to rest it on the stone. The bass pressure from these speakers and my 400x2 crown amp will literally slap the drywall off the stone. Great purchase. I bought mine because I remember my buddies dad owned a set of cerwins that were from his college days. He was probably pushing 50 when I knew him.

Beautiful simple system. In my experience if you pull them further away from the back(or is it front?) wall, it really brings out the deepest bass tones, more weight to them(in my case at least, rooms are different), and also less boominess. I have mine about 45cm away from the wall atm.

I used to own a pair of 15" Cerwin Vegas back in the late 90's and bought a pair of B&W 805 Matrix and used the CV as a speaker stand. Once I hooked up the B&Ws I never hooked up the CV ever again. The sound was so much more detailed and accurate and the Image was very clear and defined compared to the Cerwin Vegas. I also had a 12" B&W Sub with them and it sounded way better than the 2 Cerwin Vegas 15" woofers. The B&W sub went way lower (18 Hz) than the Cerwin Vegas ever can. Once you hear a real pair of speakers with a real subwoofer you will never go back. The popular name for Cerwin Vegas are "Fart Boxes"

I use SL 15s in front and Sony SSCS towers for rears, I love the Sonys so don't need to upgrade them. I have a set of VS 100s I was considering swapping them out with though because the sensitivity is a closer match. I bought those Sonys for my surround system fronts originally, and they were great but I wanted more power up front. The problem is the Sony's are really great for music and it seams they are being wasted using them for rears. I have a couple different systems set up so I'll get it straightened out. I like changing stuff up every now and then anyway.

you´re totally right ,i have only a stereo system conected to the tv, and when cars sound loud or weapons fired one almost jumps from the couch ,it´s a 74 pioneer ES-2000 bought in japan it had matrix 4 that with a extra pair of speakers made what in early 80´s av receivers called surround it mixed in two speakers a litle of each side on the other, also have some cerwin-vega, from a series that the wood was laquered or something close to it and each cost me in Spain ,in a promotion what today is 1.000€ ,this in 95 or 94 and the biggest i´ve seen .I had bought in 93 a complete new ES system from sony with the pre and power amplifier 55es(not knowing the first letters of the reference)but sold it all in 95 to buy from nakamichi a stasis power amplifier with everything else ,refering to every component for the price i had sold the sony ES takin`the power and pre that sounded excelent and didn´t gave me any problem as it happened with the cd player and the engine from the cassette deck, it was a direct drive, people say that those litle speakers or even the towers type had better sound but no other types releases a deep sound with this traditional speakers design

yeah, as long as you're not goin' 90%, you should be ok. CW's are much more efficient than they used to be. The ideal amp should have 200+wps on tap for these. CW's are the cool kid's of the speaker world imo ^^ still got mine! Altho I use my Eris monitors more as a daily thing now, the Cerwin's just don't sound nearly as good as lower listening levels, but when you want to feel it...ON POINT!

Then my friends think I'm showing off with Two Receivers in my computer room and in my Den. Most New mid-ranged 5.1 Receivers don't have the Ummpf for Large Speakers. I too have an Old School Stereo Receiver fetish LOL! I have New School 5.1 in my computer room and 5.2 Denon in my Den and a Harmon Kardon 246. But I have TWO old school JVCs that are HIGHLY underrated. These are 778 and an older 717. The JVC 919 was way the hell over powered. Again, I never got to push much past Old School 50 to 65 Watts but Note, that is not some BS PMO crap! I loved my Roommate's Pioneer 1010 that sounded just like his 1280 (Being a loan shark he acquired 6 receivers) before Top shut him down.. I sold my Kenwood Super 11 and only wished I had it for its current value. After there were about 70 Receivers in my battalion, most of us came to the conclusion that anything over over 125 watts per channel was wasted (Panzer Kaserne 1982)? You were either killing your ears, blowing out speakers or getting complained about.

The stuff created an interesting sound field, but it was really lacking when just plain listening to music. The Cerwin Vegas have better tonal quality and dynamic range.

I believe what he means is that this is an old school type of a system, like they used to be back in the good old 80s and 90s. Simple and awesome.

I have never heard good sound from a Cerwin Vega. They are just not high fidelity speakers. But even then, based on the video that room has so much audible echo that neither these nor any speakers will sound anywhere near their potential with all those reflections muddling up the sound. You should improve the acoustics of the room if you want to get more out of the speakers.

You say they sound "amazing"? I guess it doesn't take much to impress you when it come to music since you are referring to a made in China disposable receiver for audio quality. Have you ever heard a Pioneer a Maranz or a Sansui when they were made to actually sound good and of quality?
