Although the VSA 4 series speakers have a well controlled bass extension, I don't think you should automatically rule out adding on a subwoofer or two. I've heard many real full range speakers and how much a good subwoofer can add to the dynamics of the music and movies. I've even seen a person on audiogon who owns a top of the line Wilson X-2 Alexandria and has added a Wilson XS subwoofers to them. (The Alexandrias by themselves go down to a clean and loud 18Hz I believe)
I heard the Revel Salon speakers with and without the Ultima 30 sub and the difference was significant on some music pieces, and the impact was clearly better while watching movies.
If you're not satisfied with the bass of VSA 4 series speakers, which I'm sure most of you are quite satisfied with, try adding a subwoofer or two. But make sure it's a high quality sub that can keep up with the speakers.
Good luck,
