Replacement for Vandersteen 2ci
possibly the Totem Forests....with the right electronics...they would have tighter bass and better imaging than your 2ci's. Used price on the gon is 1600-2000. They have a fairly small cabinet and can extend as low as the upper 20hz. good luck! 
Any Young Audiophiles Out There?
Kijanki, very interesting point. Do you think that once my generation grows, their will be an equal demand for Hi-Fi? 
Von Schweikert VR2 vs. Totem Arro
The arro is amazing, but i have not heard the VR2. If you got arros, you probably never would regret it. The image like no other.Darren 
New integrated for Totem
I would seriously think about plinius. They are what I believe to be the best match with totems. If budget does not allow go with NAD 372. For the price, that amp will not be beaten.

How much money on speaker cable?
thanks everyone for your opinions. I do plan on addressing cables last but if i had the extra cash afterwards, would more expensive cable would enhance my experience? 
Good Amp with totem model 1s?
I have been looking at the classe CAP 151 integrated also and i have read alot about how they work well with the model ones. Does anyone have experience with these? 
Good Amp with totem model 1s?
Avrij, i have been looking at the primaluna amps but i have been warned that 40 watts is not enough for these speakers(prologue 2), what are your opinion on this issue? 
If hard drive betters optical digital retrieval
MacIntosh made a beast of what you are talking about, it has a 750 GB HD but is like 5K. It may beat a computer but is not worth the sound difference. 
Clearaudio Emotion.
The emotion looks great, but if you want to compare, possibly consider a Rega p25 or p3.
