VMPS RM40 better than Dunlavy IVa?
I have the RM40s and have auditioned the Dunlavys a few times. The Dunlavys seem heavy and dark in comparison.I have not noticed any reduced bass impact or speed (what does that mean anyway?) with the RM40s. They are, in fact, "tunable" in the bas... 
Amps and pre amps to improve on VMPS RM40 system
Brian currently uses the AMPzilla 2000 amps and has retired the Plinius.His current thinking is that the AMPzilla 2K is the best amp (top to bottom) he has heard with his RM40.

boyfriend is getting on my way
If your cute, sexy and smart, I come with a pair of RM40s and no baggage!!!! : )John 
Best used 5 channel amp for under $3k?
Too bad you insist on "balanced" since the best amp in that category (IMO at "street price") is the CineNova 5 channel.At .003% distortion balanced input is not needed.Regards,John 
What is your opinion of Alon Speakers?
Similar to the old Jon Dahlquist designs.Uses too much room interaction for my tastes, but I still have a pair of DQ10s that I listen to occasionally.John 
Opinion of Avalon Speakers or Alternataives
With your amp, The VMPS RM/x with flanking Larger SUBs. May as well, you'll end upt their anyhow.All the best,John 
Amps for jm lab mini-utopia - - any suggestions?

what's the best "mini monior" these days
You might consider the VMPS QSO626R. Custom ordered with specific options it is very hard to beat.www.vmpsaudio.comAll the bestJohn 
Alternatives to Dunlavy SC-IVA???
I third the VMPS line, particularly the new RM/x which is arguably a superior speaker if you value incredible resolving power and detail.John 
Subs without power amps
For performance and value it has to be VMPSJohn 
The best speaker you ever heard?
The VMPS RM40 w/TRT caps and dual LARGER subs can meet or beat anything I have ever heard.
