Amps to use with Von Schweikert VR4jr's


I'm curious what owners of these speakers are driving them with. I currently use a Gamut D200, and am wondering what others I might consider. For example, the Pass amps . Anyone got any suggestions as to what they have found to be a great combo?

Hate beat a dead horse, but people have sold their eVOs after one listen to
the H2O.
I took my SST Son of Ampzilla (100wpc x 2) to a friends house and we spent some time with the SoA on the VR4jr's.

For a high dispersion speaker, I thought it sounded truly remarkable from top to bottom in an untreated living room.

Great highs, rich midrange, and Solid, Deep bass.
I am running a BAT VK75SE. It can deliver some real magic with the VR4 JR. Previously, I was using a hybrid amp, an Anthem Amp 2SE (tube 1st stage and solid state power). The Anthem was also capable of delivering "magic" with rhythm and texture. The BAT was a step up in coherence and midrange, but didn't give up much in the way of bass slam.

These speaker seem to be able to use whatever quality you can deliver from the electronics.
I love my VR4jr!! I have a Sim Audio W5 driving mine and the sound is remarkable. Liquid smooth, details galore with imcredible grip on base. When I added a Supratek tube preamp, it took it to a whole different level, soundstage went further beyond speakers then I could have ever imagined, left to right, front to back... Now I know what people are talking about when they say 3D and holographic sound. My dealer runs them with the new Classe stuff... also truly amazing.

These things will certainly tell you what quality of electronics you are driving them with. They are very neutral speakers and if you have some coloured electronics driving them be prepared to hear what those auxilleries really sound like.

Good listening.
