I have heard vx-r vs mx-r on Vandersteen 7 many, many times..pretty much a tie except loud loud or big room. i went w VX-r for same reasons you cite..had my then 5a 6' out into room and did not want more claptrap on floor..
Someone i respect a great deal thinks the vx-r sounds better....
Running the twenty upgrade now.i never wish for more power. If i do get the itch it will most likely be Vandersteen amps...
