Something comparable to VSA VR-1s

I know I'm opening myself up to a world of pain here asking for a speaker recommendation, but I'm so out of the game that I need the help.

We've just set up a dance floor in our basement playroom, and the speakers down here are killing me. Moving our main system (all Von Schweikert speakers: VR-2s for mains, two VR1s subs, VR1s for the rears, and a LCR-15 Center Channel) is not an option, as it is our home theater. But the dance floor means I'm doing a lot more listening down here. I need some good speakers. They'll be driven by an amp my husband built. (It's good.) He built a DAC too. But for some reason he doesn't want to build speakers.

Given that I love the sound of my VSAs and I can not seem to score some here or on eBay etc, what else should I look at in the 1K or under range? I know that's not a lot, but even that is pushing it.

Thanks!

Hey everyone. For some reason, I thought my thread had never posted. I never got any of the notifications. I ended up getting a great deal on a pair of LSA .5s. I actually think I like them better than VR1s in the space. (I borrowed them for a quick A/B. I'll do a real once when my .5s are broken-in.)

BTW, I did try to contact VSA about lining me up with a pair. I never heard back. So not like them.

Thanks for your time!!!
