I take it you have the VR's w/JC1's? I had VR4GenIII's w/ Ayre V-1xe & Atma-sphere pre & sold everything 2.5 yrs. ago. I now run BAT amp w/Pass Aleph P, along w/some homemade spkrs & inexpensive sub. Doesn't have the same bass as big VR's but very nice & musical.
My suggestion is Sonus Faber Electa Amator II run w/BAT gear. My good friend has this set-up in a mostly analog system & although you don't get the hard hitting bass, it's quite nice. I will eventually replace the spkrs I have w/the same or very similar units.
