No bias here. Room treatments that get over-all freq. response with-in even 6-8db is very good in most rooms. These room correction devices can only help even more if used correctly. Between speaker placement, seating placement, room treatments, a... 
Narrowing down to JM Reynaud or VMPS...Help
Hi LarryI think that was Soliver that had that opinion, not me. I did not offer an opinion because I have not listened to the speakers you asked about. My link was to a dealer or user whom could give you a listen..there are several listed at the t...

You may want to smooth-out the bass response in your room with bass traps and then work on the other freq. to make the job more easy. Upper freq. will be very easy to deal with unless you have a reverb-chamber for a room.Dave 
How Loud Do You Listen??? Do You Know?????????
Mostly 75-85db at my listening position, add some refreshments to the mix and I'll crack the 90's.90db. and above is very loud in my room.Dave

The VMPS RM-2 is around $2800 new and is a fairly small floor stander. A list of VMPS dealers and owners can be found at the VMPS forum http://www.audiocircle.com/circles/viewforum.php?f=39.Dave

Pass Labs versus Jeff Rowland, Audio Research
GuidocoronaMy Duetta Sig's are in line with your speakers at 4ohms and dipping. Muralman1 has the Apogee Scintilla at 1ohm...a real amp eater that was a load for the Pass.As I stated, I have not tried any of these digital amps. My old Krell Ksa-25... 
Pass Labs versus Jeff Rowland, Audio Research
Sweetness, delicacy and overall glow were all there, Pass is of the highest order in SS amps...dynamics were limited with the older model with his very hard to drive Apogees. He moved on to an digital amp..first a 250 watt (I think) eAR and is now... 
Smaller speaker - bigger Woofer?
Well, the poster did say that he could live with a 48" tall speaker, he should have no problem finding a speaker that fits his needs.Small speaker with large woofer in a two way design is a problem unless as Eldartford mentioned. I did hear a pair... 
Pass Labs versus Jeff Rowland, Audio Research
Did they upgrade the power supply in the new Pass amps? If not and you go with the Pass...get the biggest model you can swing ($$$).We have a member of the Apogee speaker forum who had the Pass-600 mono's with his Apogees and they were somewhat li... 
Affordable external crossover for sub use.....

Smaller speaker - bigger Woofer?
You would need to go into a 3-way design at a point...another X-over. Eldartford has the right idea for small box design, I've listened to a pair of these years ago and they were stunning in their bass quality.Dave

FatparrotI'm no video expert by any means..my limited video experience is one RP-hdtv in the living room and a cheap Infocus X-1 projector in my dedicated room.Kennyt pretty much answered your question regarding what a DVI cable is (Digital Video ...
