I picked these up in almost mint condition for $75/pair in the parking lot of a Jack in the Box in Ahwatukee, Az. Seller was moving to Texas and didn't want to move them halfway across the country. When I saw them in person - I understood why! They are 32" high, 16.5" wide, 14.75" deep and weigh 57 lbs. EACH. After hauling them upstairs to my apartment and hooking them up to a Pioneer Elite receiver, I remembered why I love Cerwin-Vegas so much!

They sound much better than my Bose speakers, I was surprised yet the bass response is just awsom!! I love cerwin Vega period!! Only problem I have is that they don't print brochures, so I can't read on them any more? My vs 120's are great!! I wish I could find another pair??? Thank you keep building them please.

Hi there. I am happy to say I'm the proud owner of a set of VS120'S. I also have the 100's and the 80's. The ve5c helps even everything out with movies along with the ve-28 subwoofer for the lows. The overall experience is rather thrilling at least for myself.

I picked up these Cerwin-Vega Vs-120s with an onkyo 2 channell amp and a Kenwood home theater amp for a total of 20 bucks which I think is a total steal! |

I run my VS-120 with an SAE MARK IXB preamp to a QSC 1310 power amp. That's up to 375 conservative watts per channel. The gain on the amps is set at 6db and I have never the SAE above 50%. The Vega's sound sweet as the days I bought them. I have boss 901's and acustimas 5's, Infiniti's, definitive technologies and Celestions. All bought after Vegas and I still listen to the SV-120 the most. They are great for all types of music. |

Got these for $10 at a yard sale. Yes, a yard sale. I replaced an RCA surround system with these, and what a difference! I have these in a 600 sq ft apartment, and could probably vibrate the entire building. I like these better than a set of Bose 301s I used to have, and for 15+ years old, they have held up well! |

I bought my VS-120's from a local through the want ads for 35$. They look like they are probably about 10 or 15 years old. When I first hooked them up to an older pioneer receiver I heard things in my music that I never heard before. They sound great all around. One of the surrounds on the subs is a little beat up but thats okay because I run them with a 15 CV subwoofer. These speakers sound great and get so much louder than they need to, which is good for doing work around the house when you still want to hear your music. I am currently running them with an Onkyo TX 811. I dont know how much power it puts out but it is beyond enough. If I have my computer volume at 80 percent, I dont need my receiver past 50 percent and I fill the whole house with music. |
