Try to audition both the VR1s and the LCR (or whatever they now call their MTM config 3-way) along with their VRS/1 sub. Do the speakers alone, then with a single sub.VR1s have all the qualities you want. YOu can get them new on the Web now for $700 (list is $1K) and the sub will still set you back about $1600. It's so damn small and so well integrated and so powerful that you might be shocked!
Then do the MTM version, which is slightly larger and goes deeper on its own. They say and I've actually heard them be an improved version of the VR1 when upended. They will cost about $1500 a pair, still leaving you room for that sub in your budget if you still feel you need one.
