BIC Venturi V62 (Don't Laugh)

[m5isa540]

I just dug out an old pair of BIC Venturi V62 speakers that have been in the back on our storage closet for several years. I hooked these little guys up to a Yamaha HTR-6090 along with a old Infinity BU2 Sub and an old Infinity center speaker. Wow! What a clean sound. I am impressed. Mind you, I am a real snob when it comes to my audio electronics. I currently have Denon AVR 4308, Paradigm Studio 100's, ADP 590's and a Velodyne DD15 Sub. But I am impressed by these little BIC speakers. Does anyone have any experience with the guys? Just curious.....

From what I read, they are quite impressive for the price one pays for them. Other week, I saw on craigslist for the same pair for only $30. Too bad....kinda regret not getting them. Based with many reviews, I have no problem recommending BIC's Venturi and Acoustech line for budget minded people looking for that bang for the buck system.

audioholics has a few tweaks that you can use to make them even better. The best one is to put more poly-fill in them to tighten up the bass. I had a BIC sub (1220) and loved it (till I got my hsu vtf2 mk 3) The BIC products offer good sound and great value. don't let anyone put you down for that.

I have BIC venturis as well in the other room. I laugh not! After all these years, they still sound damn good. I'd put those up against just about any consumer grade speaker you'd pay twice as much for. I have the small bookshelf ones as well. I can't remember the model numbers on the towers or the small ones, but I'll check when I get home.

I have always been a big fan of the Venturi line as far as a budget alternative goes.

Do a search, they were quite a popular speaker a few years back around here.

Just happened on your post when I googled my V62s which I've operated since early 90s. These have travelled continents. Still sound great. Do you happen to know the wattage on the V62s? No mention on the rear.

Here are specs on the BIC DV-62. I don't know how close they are to the V-62.

I have a couple of pairs of these little gems, (rear surrounds and sons mains) if you want to make them sound better do a search for Ed Frias, he does a crossover modification that really brings these to life!

V62 Tweeters

I know this post was very old, but I have a pair of these and one of the tweeters died. I cant seem to find a replacement can anyone point me to something that is suitable that will fit in the V62. Mine are BiC Venturi and say V62A on the back.

Thanks!
