Pre amp and source suggestions for VR-4jr?
I have heard NAIM can sound great, but I have also read that you should not mix NAIM and other "non Naim" components together. Does that stand for their CDX player as well?As for the home theater I may still wind up expanding it later to a full 5.... 
Theta cassablanca II, bel canto pre6, Cary cinema8
My mistake...I should have said PrePro for bel canto. 
VR-4JR or USHER 6371
Hi allThanks for your input. I just purchased the VR4jr's. I could not find the ushers to audition them and I was impressed by the VSR's so i took the plunge. Now i am looking forward to deciding on a good processor and universl player.Cheers!Sam 
Von Schweikert lettering rubbed off?
I don't think that was the issue....I bought them in Hong Kong, from a Chinese dealer. The lettering is just partly removed around the ambience driver adjustment and near the binding posts. It is not deliberatley obscured, and a dealer wouldn't de... 
Krell home theater standard 2 vs. Theta Casa Nova
Not 6 hours after making this post I recieved an email from a second hand audio dealer and he has a Casa Blanca I for about the same money as the Casa nova. The CB has the superior dacs all around and is in good (although old) condition. A couple ...

Thanks for the input Lowfi! I was just out looking around and found a "cache" of various eggleston speakers including the rosa and stella? ( I hadnt heard of the Stella before). They sounded impressive but i am not sure if they best the VR 4jr or ...

I am considering the gallo ref 3's also but I have to wait until I can hear them in a week or two. I have heard the VR4 jrs and they sounded incredible in a larger room, but so so in a smaller venue. I think they will require some room correction/... 
Monitors for great 2 channel, and home theater
Hi againWhen I heard the callisto's they were in a equilateral trianlge with good position. The only thing I can think of that was causing the offending high frequency was room response. The room was quite small and perhaps there was some reflecti... 
Bel Canto HELP
Hi MlkizI think that there was a big difference between the 200.2 and evo2 (I) in terms of better power supply and double the capacitance. I can see where the upgrades made some impact. As I understand it, the 200.6 to evo6 change was all cosmetic...

Dali's are another that I would consider. I guess the question now is, if I am going to use a speaker that is mid size/ie big book shelf like the LCR-15, or a smaller floor stander (not as deep as the 4jr), would there be a better speaker in that ... 
VR-4JR or USHER 6371
OK so after doing some more evaluation, I am thinking the system 12 may be a better idea. The LCR 15s will be small enough that I can move them out when I want to listen and not need a team of mules to do so. I can then re stow them to keep the wi...
