Looking for a new speaker: VR 4 Jr vs. Hps 938

Hello, I have been running a pair of Jr's with my VK60 since they came out. I think there is incredible synergy between the two. I often wish for a little more "oomph" to drive the speakers as I listen to rock & roll & want concert levels. But overall the other 99% of the time I can not believe how good it sounds.

fishwater, what kind of speaker configuration are you using with your JR?

I was deciding between the same 2 speakers and went with the HPS-938. The main attraction is that I intend to venture into tube amplification and many users and reviewers have great success with even SETs. Never regretted the choice even with my current old Krell power amp.

Just recently picked up a pair of the JR4's. At the dealer mainly listened via 55 watt tube integrated. Beautifull, there truly is music in them. After hearing the VR's I did not even take the chance to listen to the Hyperion speakers, perhaps I should have. The JR's having the rear speaker, made more sense in the prospect of presenting a larger soundstage. Let your ears be the judge along with room placement considerations. You can not go wrong with the JR4's. Your in for music heaven with them. Happy listening which ever way you go.

I have mine almost 10 feet apart & toed in slightly. I am also running a shotgun run of Acoustic Zen Satori speaker wire. I know it is very important to bi-wire these speakers & I feel a shotgun run is even better. I do not use the data link connector with my Satori's.
