I have to qualify this because I became a dealer for Vmps last year. I've owned Vmps speakers since 1996 though and that is what is in my main listening room, RM 40's. It's the only thing I sell and actually I don't sell them, they sell themselves.
This is fortunate as I'm no sales person and don't care to be. It's part of my hobby and has nothing to do with my living.
I will say in my honest opinion you're going to be very hard pressed to beat the Vmps RM 40's. This of course is opinion and there are other great speakers too, but not very many that are great for the money.
You should check out the Vmps forum at audiocircle.com. At minimum you should hear everything you can before you plunk down several grand for a pair of speakers. I can say that myself, my brother and a close friend all have owned Vandersteens. We all now own Vmps speakers in one size or another.
