VSA speaker owners What did you upgrade to?

To all the VR owners out there, past and present, when or as you felt the desire to press on to another quest for speakerage, Exactly what did you press on and get?

Was it a big diff?

A little diff?

Glad you did it?

or wished you hadn't.

though I felt a need to ask other VSA owners these questions, anyone can chime in and perhaps we'll all get some other perspectives about loudspeaker changes.

I haven't wanted to make a change yet, but I will mention a few speakers that I would definitely consider. Not in any order:
B&W 803d
B&W 802
Verity Audio Parsifal
Talon Audio Firebird
VSA VR4sr
I like the question and look forward to seeing some other responses.

I havn't made the change yet either, but I just sold my vr4sr's and I think I will be upgrading to the vr5se's (which I hear are almost as good as the vr9's) or the Escalante freemonts

I started with a pair of VR3's. I liked them but decided I wanted a little better (deeper) bass. I settled on VR4genIII's. I like them even better (alot). Since I was building a dual purpose room (stereo/HT), I decided to go with all VSR. I added a LCR15, kept the VR3s and put them in the rear (there's no speaker better for what they go for used IMO), and added a VSR Tower of Power. I'm very satisfied with this and don't have any ambitions to upgrade at the moment, but if I do it will be to another VSR Model most likely.

I have another dedicated room in which I have a comparable system and am running Totem Mani-2s there. They're a nice contrast to the VSR sound.
