The Ultimate Party Speaker?! Danny Takes on Cerwin Vega!

[@dennisryan459]

I was a DJ at parties and used these speakers ! I drove them with the Cayin A50 -T integrated tube amp ! People always came up to me to comment on the quality of sound ! I also used a turntable and two high end SACD players . It played loud and clean with emotion ! Many DJ' s have terrible sound today !

[@billydeaton3560]

That's because they think if they can just drop a couple speakers a cheap mixer a junk amp and a turntable they will get paid ! Now days they have there song lists in a computer and just push play ! That ain't proper DJing !! Proper DJing is a lost art ! Plus your clarity of sound is everything !!

[@thevirtualmixtape]

As a DJ, sound quality is an obsession to me but I was also influenced by live sound engineers and the sound system culture. A lot of DJs today don’t really care about sound because they don’t know how to use their gear and to your point, use junk equipment and just plug and play.

[@glenncurry3041]

I was a rep for Cerwin Vega in the '70's back when those were sold. Toured the company and met Gene Czerwinski. He had a real thing against dome drivers so he cut a basketball in half and glued each half as a dome to a set of his 10" woofers in cabinets. the only dome woofer at the time! Quite the character!

[@RobertCookcx]

That's beautiful. Lol

[@thomasmleahy6218]

,Frankensteinsky style?

[@Finite-Tuning]

I got my first credit card back in my late teens, then got my first pair of Cerwin Vega speakers. Mine were the 15" woofers with dual 3" ports on the rear. I'm here to tell ya, once bi-amped and EQ'd, those things would dig a hole straight to hell on the low end. They can be very impressive if you're willing to push them. I learned a lot about speakers and cabinets with Cerwin Vega, finally sold them in my early 30's to a friend and he still uses them today. With today's digital EQ's, I'll bet one could really make these sing.... Way back when all I had were analog sliders and some really crude analysis gear. No, not the good ole days! Not in this regard. Cheers 🍻 P.S. Back when I bought my 15" version of this speaker, I got them at Sears and paid $500 for the pair. They were sold individually. Funny how I can remember meaningless crap like this 🤷‍♂.

[@marvinmurakami8828]

If you got yours in the late 70's it was probably the Model U315 designating 15" 3-way. The U15 was a 15" 2-way. Great sounding speakers that'll blow out the windows along with the frame. I didn't find them fatiguing at all. The U series was followed by the D series, VE series, AT series. Don't know the model names after that.

[@Finite-Tuning]

@@marvinmurakami8828: I bought mine back in 1996 and sold them in 2010. But for the life of me I cannot remember their model number. Cheers 🍻

[@tatialo37]

Great story!! Thanks!!

[@AmmoDude]

True test of a great speaker is to run it without having to EQ the heck out of it. If you have to EQ it, move on to something else. Bi-amping doesn't improve sound quality, just allows you to dedicate wattage to the low and mid/high frequencies separately.

[@tigerstripeeyes9871]

You forgot about the RE series, like my RE38’s… they are vicious!! 20hz-20,000hz… you just have to be there to experience these monsters.😎👍

[@fishypictures]

My wife and I went to the good guys back in the seventies . We got a pair of Cerwin Vega hard rockers. Great speakers.

[@rb89509]

I had a pair of D9's back in the 80's. I still have Tinnitus to this day, almost 40 years later. Would I buy them again? Hell yes!

[@mark-1rc502]

They’re made in china these days

[@robdebbilynnreed6339]

same!

[@robdebbilynnreed6339]

IN fact I'm still blasting the same speakers!

[@1mikeb]

D7s here, and yes, best party speakers ever. Ultimately paired with a Hafler pre-amp and Carver amp, Let's Go! Succumbed to "too big" lable. I've had several "higher end" systems since, none I enjoyed more than that one.

[@danielfilion3792]

i just got a pair of D-9 to restore

[@Error2username]

So glad to see cv on your channel🙏

[@rancosteel]

Cerwin Vegas claim to fame was never to be a high fidelity product. Gene Czerwinski introduced outdoor loudspeaker systems for concerts. Also, Cerwin Vega is the only speaker company to win an Academy Award for the film Earthquake with their folding horn design. Some theaters had to stop showing the film because the walls were cracking from the low frequencies. Amazin.

[@BigJeddak187]

Folded horns don't have anything to do with low frequency. It's that Their woofers are almost built to meet the sub-woofer category. That's why they require so much power to properly drive.

[@beesting6135]

Wrong they are great speakers

[@hochhaul]

@@beesting6135 I had a pair of their VS-150's. They weren't audiophile material, but they dug right down to 20 Hz without the need for a subwoofer and they had the punch to make you feel like you're at the concert, standing up close to the stage.

[@Tazmanian_Ninja]

@@BigJeddak187How can you fit so much dumb BS into such a short comment? 😅😵 Study more, talk less. Cos right now, you're just propagating BS.

[@scottlowell493]

They won for the 18” subwoofers

[@craighoffman6876]

This brings back some memories. These are party speakers. They are designed to be hot on the top end for when the room is full of drunk treble absorbing bodies. I was in a fraternity in college when these were current models. Built some 3 way party speakers using four CV 12" woofers, dome mids and horn piezo tweeters and simple crossovers designed solely to protect the mids from damage. I knew nothing, but still knew enough to put a coil on the woofer to roll it off though. Piezo tweeters were indestructible and required no crossover to protect them as they are high resistance and "ignore" low frequencies. The piezo tweeters would make your ears bleed when the room was empty but they "came in" once we had 100+ people packed into the bar. The old CV woofers had nice cast aluminum baskets on them. The house system had four 12's and it thumped hard for that pre powered subwoofer era. The usual deal was to turn the 100 WPC Yamaha integrated amp we had up to clipping, then back itt off a tad, and the party was on. We ran the amp with a fan on it as it got toasty hot otherwise 😆 It is a credit to the amp that it drove that 4 ohm load hard and it didn't melt. Old school Yamama is tuff stuff. I am shocked the orange foam surround isn't all rotted out though.

[@v12alpine]

Pretty sure that woofer has been recently reconed. Agree on the party curve response. A crouded/loud audience needs more top end to over come. And the breaker on the mids/highs is super critical (drunk DJ protection).

[@jikester]

Still remember fondly the first pair of loudspeakers I ever bought new--A set of Cerwin Vega AT-15s. Ran them with a 400w/ch Carver amp and they'd shake the walls.

[@eddieshirely1462]

I had the same. At-15s on a carver a500x. That would deffintly Rock!!!

[@jasonme3557]

in 1992-3 I have the huge Cerwin Vega 15" version of this one much newer. These were Loud. I had a adcom GFA 535 and wow you could hear them though the whole campus. Any one commenting if you were at RIT in 92-3 you heard us. :) took up a third of the apartment . Good times. Nice one Danny

[@bradleydurbin6784]

I have the Adcom G535 my god your lucky you aren’t deaf. Lol

[@JR-ho5qm]

Danny helped me with a crossover upgrade on a newer pair of CerwinVega! SL12 and I couldn’t be happier! CV speakers respond really well to crossover upgrades, and NoRez. I highly recommend anyone who is interested in doing this to there CV speakers to do so. Hopefully we see more CerwinVega speakers come through GR Reserch.

[@StephenHopson-g5k]

Where did you find the upgraded crossover from.

[@JR-ho5qm]

@@StephenHopson-g5k I sent my stock crossovers to Danny at GR and he sent me back everything I needed to point to point wire new crossovers with original schematics

[@FOH3663]

I've got the D-5, 12" version ... I haven't played them in thirty years. Late 80's, I opened them up ... diagramed the x-over and was blown away the woofers operate wide open! No filtering. Sure, you hear the upper breakup ... but you're treated to a good woofer, in a good box, directly connected to the amplifier. No resistive, no reactive component, just direct coupled. They're calked chokes for a reason! My D-5s had PTC resistor protection instead of a breaker.

[@sgtjosozo]

It's about time we see some Cerwin Vegas here.

[@Audioholics]

If there's ever a speaker that needs a crossover upgrade, it's a Cerwin Vega. I remember being a proud owner of a pair of D-2s in High School until I opened them up and saw no crossover on the 10" woofer and a cheesy electrolytic cap in series with the tweeter. I sold them to my brother a year later and got some JBLs :)

[@paulclarke245]

it would have been a bipolar cap not an electrolytic. but yep the internals of CV's are awful

[@Audioholics]

@paulclarke245 yep, you're right, my apologies. Garbage nonetheless

[@troyhunt8690]

Back in the 80's bought a pair of CERWIN VEGA D-5's and a pair of D-3's "WOW THOSE THINGS WOULD SHAKE THE HOUSE".. Got my share of police calls, for "LITERALLY WAKING UP THE NEIGHBORHOOD, DISTURBING THE PEACE" during parties. Kept those speakers for over 30 years, the woofer orange speaker section started getting old and fell apart on two, blew a tweeter on one but other that they lasted me a long time. Sold all 4 speakers about 8 years ago to young guy for $150. Got my money's worth from them over the years.

[@rinkopr5561]

I have a pair of D9s and love them. Had them since 1984

[@robdebbilynnreed6339]

Same here! still have them. For me it was 1982 that the neighbors started complaining!

[@swd7901]

A blast from the past. Wow. I've been dreaming about Cerwin Vega speakers, and now I'm happy that they were only dreams. Very surprised that the iconic bass drivers were so muted!?

[@mutatedgenome]

That response looks great. Nice work Danny.

[@StrangeBrewReviews]

You could make good money with aftermarket crossovers for Cerwin-Vega...huge following

[@seoulrydr]

thanks for another vid - wish we were able to see the spectral decay prior to the revamp!

[@patmason7276]

Have been using them for years always a trusted go to speaker!!!

[@AaronHendu]

My dad had some very nice Cerwin Vega speakers growing up...I literally blasted windows out of the frames of our old house when he wasnt home one day. You could crank them to the moon with very little distortion. At first he got super mad.but eventually he asked me how I got them to soind so good and had to show him how tp use his digital amp controls...he was used to the slider eq from the past and had no clue you could even adjust levels and whatnot. He had all sorts of effects turned on lol. Edit - he still uses those speakers, though he added a massive subwoofer for watching movies (16" I think...in a 12x12 living room.originally lol), and Sony center and rear speakers. He did have to replace the woofers a few years back but he got the actual OEM replacements. They have been in daily use for about 35 years now. I think he still uses the same Yamaha amp from the early 90's as well. Flanks his massive approx. 70" television.

[@qddk9545]

It brings back memories. I once had a ´high end´ set that I think was called S1. 15" woofer, 5" mid woofer and 2 screamer tweeters, one front and one backfiring. I dismounted the 2 screamers and installed an EV tweeter of some kind on top of the cab, and they served me well in my 20´s.

[@jamesgoertler133]

I have these. Bought them new forever ago and use them still almost everyday. Played some Bridge of Sighs by Robin Trower on them today...

[@raygarafano3633]

Greetings, just got the SL-15, already had tge SL-12. To me they are great, Classical piano is great, got the lowest piano strings sounding great. Herb Alpert sounds pretty good as so other brass. Yup, very satisfied.

[@kevin9c1]

I still have a pair of E-312s that I got 25 years ago. I replaced the 12" woofers with some 12" car subs for reasons. But I'd love to do a project like this on them!!

[@Connectronix]

I have the big Cerwin Vega DX9’s and they were my first real speakers into the world of HiFi. Now you got me thinking that I should upgrade them and get them singing again! Classic! 🔊🔊😎

[@JR-ho5qm]

Definitely upgrade them. You will enjoy the process and results! Send them to Danny, I would love to see a crossover upgrade on the DX9. That’s a popular speaker

[@tenehaglendening9246]

I would be interested in a Dx9 upgrade as well​@@JR-ho5qm

[@bobczz3919]

Back in 87-88 I was stationed in Korea and bought the CV M-100's. M stood for military. They have a 12" woofer and 2 drivers, and 2 tweeters. Those things were loud and rocked. I drove them with a SAE A1001 amplifier 😊

[@cafe80s]

I really enjoy all of the speaker upgrade videos! Thank you!

[@awm891]

Love Vega's. Dad bought a pair way back in the day and I rocked the shit out of the house lol

[@GrandCamino6]

The Cerwin Vega D3 was my first pair back in 1990 when I was 16. I absolutely loved them & replaced them with the DX9’s in 1997. I’d love to get my hands on a pair of Q1’s.

[@gznubouit]

My first ever speakers D3 were the sheet when they came out, all of my friends wanted them. We plugged them in a Metron M200 and they absolutely sang.

[@nitzerebbhead]

I still have my old CV MX250 speakers I bought as a young US soldier in Korea. I refoamed the 12" woofers around 2015 as they had been unusable for years. We rocked the barracks with them back in 1995.. I have always known they aren't the most accurate speakers out there, but yeah they were loud... :)

[@nelsono4315]

back in the day I owned a pair of CV's with 15inch woofers. I called them lease breakers. And I had them in a smallish room. WOW ! Stand back !!!

[@Drivehead103]

I wonder what could be done with my Cerwin Vega e712, this was very cool and impressive.

[@SWRMR]

Men... I could never thought these kind of vintage speakers could ever play at ruler flat response, no matter what! Great great job! 👋👋👍

[@4Fox59]

Just picked up a pair of 39p Cerwin Vegas and a Yamaha CR-840 at an estate sale for $55. Work perfectly after some internal cleaning on the Yamaha. Not sure of the difference in these and the D3, but so far enjoying them right now as I type.

[@chemicallust77]

When you installed the tube connectors, did you remove the input cup and replace it with a piece of wood or something?...It would have been nice to see the back side and show how you did it

[@dannyrichie9743]

The customer gets to do that, and it will be easiest to install them straight through the cabinet.

[@stephenyoud6125]

Danny - you’re a genius.. Excellent result there. There’s life in the old dog yet !! (The speaker not you !!), well, clearly you also!!

[@genecase9464]

I just installed 4 Cerwin Vega V468 coaxial speakers in my old Ford Explorer and they are of really very nice quality. Heavy frame, large magnet and they have the bright red surround rubber CV is known for. And they sound pretty darn good too!. I know Danny is playing with some of their older house speakers but I thought I'd mention these car speakers. And like most consumer level products, CV makes many products of varying price and quality. I wish someone would analyze car speakers as well as Danny does the home stereo speakers. Although KZbin sites like Williston Audio Labs are a lot of fun!

[@joelowens5211]

Cerwin Vegas were my first pair of real speakers when a kid over 30 years ago. Had a pair of the 15's from Circuit City and had then in a 10 by 10 foot bedroom with a Kenwood receiver. The bass was absolutely crushing and they had good highs also. My dad would come up from the basement 2 levels down and get mad because the whole house was shaking..lol For the money they were amazing speakers for back in the day. These days I have an ultra high end system but when you are a kid most just want the boom, boom sound and clear highs.

[@dextermorgan1]

I was going to write my 2 cents in the comments, but you just wrote pretty much exactly what I was going to! First speakers, when I was 13 etc. I have a great system now, but back then, those speakers were the beet!

I owned a pair of VS-120 in 1992. My ADCOM 100W GFA-545. The Cerwin Vegas just kept blowing fuses. They sounded average. I returned then after 2 month’s and Circuit City traded me up for a pair of JBL LX-500. No blown fuses and a lovely soundstage. Cerwin Vegas were mid-fi. Good for compressed FM Rock and cheap Turntables.

Hi from down under ! Great work getting that classic CV sounding better ! Is there any chance you could show the schematic for your upgraded crossover ? I'd buy your kit but postage is an absolute killer and I can get the components locally. I have a copy of the factory x-over schematic if you would like it ? cheers ! I have a pair of D5's ( which use the same x-over as the D3, same mid and tweeter, but different woofer. ) Also D8's and D9's Would be great if you could work your magic on those as well !!

[@mattholland315]

Nice job Danny. Are you ever tempted to embrace some of the original design aims? For this speaker maybe a rising HF would be a good thing? Looks like the HF drops off a lot off axis so some on-axis boost might be desirable. And a smiley curve response would keep this speaker sounding like a party speaker.

[@sickmessiah]

I wonder how the dx9 would be with improvements .. I use to own 2 pairs of them .. Id run a sansui au 717 with them and they were very nice to listen to ... Not mix on .. LOL .. That combo seemed to make everything sound better then it was ... I grew up learning to produce music on dx9's .. Not really knowing what i was doing ... I also had a pair of dx3's i found cheap .. Anyhow ... Id love to see a pair of them tri amped for each driver ... That would be a fun project ... I still have the drivers and x-overs to a pair of the dx9's and dx3's .. The boxs are kinda junk now n days in storage ...

I've seen the old Cerwin Vega 1215, the old top of the line speaker of theirs, are sought after today. I don't know why. Maybe it's a good speaker compared with their other ones.

The $400 is for the crossover parts, wire, NoRez and tube connectors. It’s up to you to build the crossovers. Danny’s parts prices are extremely reasonable. And the fact that he doesn’t charge for his design time is a unbelievable blessing to the community
