Meadowlark Nighthawk vs Von Schweikert VR4 SE

I am considering upgrading my speaker to either the Meadowlark Nighthawk or the Von Schweikert VR4 SE. My present system includes: Audio Aero Prima cdp, Belles 21a pre,Belles 150A REFERENCE amp, Von Schweikert vr2, harmonic technology pro-silway mk111 ic and pro-9 spk. cables.
I find the sound of the VS vr2 to be on the forward side in the mids & highs and not quite as warm & transparent as I would like. Don't get me wrong guys, the VR2 are really excellent speakers in there own right($2500/great bass),but I just want something better overall and am willing to spend the bucks in the price range of about $6000 new. However, I am not able to audition these two speakers in my area and would like some help as to which speaker would be less forward(mids & highs) and more warmer-sweeter overall.
Thank You.

Audiofanki, thanks for the response. It is most helpful.
2 questions: 1. What did you mean when you wrote "...no one note bass"?
2. Do you think the Belles 150a Reference amp(125w/ch)is enought amp to fully exploit the qualities of the Nighthawk or should I consider bridgeing two of them together(500w/ch)?
Thank You
