Von Schweikert VR-6 or Wilson Audio Watt/Puppies 5

Dear friends,
I am on the second hand market for speakers with a budget of about $ 4-5 k. The shortest list I made puts a real dilemma: Von Schweikert VR 6 or Wilson Watt/Puppies 5,1. They will be driven by low power Push/Pull tube amplifier (Audio Note). Will be used mostly for rock and roll, pop, classic and jazz.

Nilmilkov,
IMO the wilson is`nt a good match for your low power tube amps and may likely lead to disappointment.I`ve not heard the VR-6 speaker but based on the comments posted so far it seems a better choice with your amplifier.

Nik,
You made it easy.Your amp will sing with the right speaker,the Wilson is`nt a good impedance load match at all.
