I love mine. I've auditioned dozens of speakers across the years and have yet to find any for less than $15K-$18K which I like better. Deep, well defined bass, no need for a subwoofer. Very open, wide & deep soundstage, very natural sounding.
You made a great choice. Enjoy.

Thanks Bombadil!
I'm really enjoying them and yes, no need for Subwoofers. I have listened to several speakers in the $10K to 15K but purchased the VSA VR-5 Anniversary MK II without an audition bassed on my love for my previous VSA VR-5 HSE.
I was a bit apprehensive to do so without listening first but so glad I did. They really did out perform the others. I am not saying this to verify my purchase. They really do shine from top to bottom.
