So, maybe I should have said it this way. First, find the speaker you really want and can afford. Then, if it synergies well with Audio Research, than buy the VT 80 amp and enjoy. Of course, if it does not, pass up the good deal and get an amp/pre that pairs well with your chosen speaker. The amp/speaker interface is perhaps most important. For me it is.
