Vandersteen VLR Wood ..any love for these?

Greg,
Going to go with John Rutan.  He has provided great feedback and answers to my queries.  Hope he still has a demo pair by the time my Silverline and REL sells.  Thanks so much.

gcknapp.....great choice going with Senor Rutan’s advice.  I got mine from Music Direct.  Open box/demo pair.  If I was closer to John, no brainer.  Either will take good care of you.  Best and keep us posted.  PM me if you want.

Regards,
David

Good read on the VLRs.. thank you... 
How do the VLRs a foot away from walls in terms of bass, are you missing a lot under 100hz? and are they directional like something like magnepan or do they have good dispersion?
Thanks... 

Thanks David. I may take you up on your offer

Vandersteen rep at AXPONA said to expect a forthcoming VLR Signature model with carbon tweeter like the Treo.  May wait for upgrade model to a/b before final purchase decision.  Significant increase in price, however.
