In the specs on the website, it says the VP150 is a 6Ω speaker, but the sticker on the back says 8Ω. Which is it?

Uuuuuhhhhh... it's always been referred to as 6 ohm, but maybe they changed something.

I'm pretty sure mine is 6ohm, I might have to get off the couch and go downstairs to check mine.

Mine's nearly 4 years old and the sticker says 6 ohm.

Chris is just trying to get me to drop my Centre Speaker again

LOL... I mean, I'm sorry about that the first time, but really mine says:

Model: VP150 v2
Impedance: 8 Ohms

I think my 150 is a v2 as well, will have to run down and check, oh wait I already said I would do that, somehow my wifes cooking got in the way...

Just looked at mine, it says VP150 V2, and below that 6 ohms.

Neat...

Paging Ian, would Ian Colquhoun please report to this thread.

Mine says V2, 6 ohm. purchased in November 2007

Mine says VP100. <slinks off>

Mine shipped on November 20th, 2009. Custom (i.e. old) Black Oak.

Wow, a misprint!

My VP150 V2 is 6 ohms. Could be a couple of ohms got knocked out of it when I dropped it before.

Chris, as you know, speaker impedance commonly varies significantly with frequency, and usually the manufacturer rates it at an average figure(the M80 is an exception, since its 8 ohm nature over the majority of the frequency range would justify a 6 ohm average rating). This may simply be a determination that the average for the VP150 is more realistically 8 rather than 6 ohms and that the 6 ohm rating may be confusing to some users who think in terms of 8 and 4 ohms. It seems unlikely that there was actually a change in the drivers so that their impedance was increased. In any case, the difference is nothing to be concerned about.

Yeah, I'm not worried, just curious (good thing I'm not a cat; I would have long since used up all my lives). I don't think there was a change in the drivers either, but was wondering if the crossover design was tweaked at all--which could also change the impedance. Just wanted to know if it was a design, or a labeling change.

or a labeling error.

Probably just a sticker/label error. My VP150v2 says 6ohms and it has always been stated as such under the manufacturers specifications. What does it say on the stickers on the box?

Box sticker also says 8 Ohms, but I assume they are printed at the same time, because they both have serial numbers on them.

Well I say sell it on ebay as a 'very rare, hard to find 8 ohm VP150'!!!

Don't forget to charge a mint for it!

If you can get Bbigwyres to sign it, you could get even more $$!!
