replacing Dunlavy SC-IV's


Hi folks, I've lived for 7 years now with a pair of Dunlavy SC-IV's, which are admirable speakers by the way. Now I'm looking for other speakers (better ones). Are there better speakers than these Dunlavies (maybe SC-IVA of SC-V) for a reasonable price ($15,000 would be my limit). My set: CEC TL-0 CD-transport, Bel Canto DAC 1.1, Accuphase amplification and Dunlavy SC-IV's. What do you think of Genesis or JM Lab (Utopia)?

Audiokinesis makes some great points. I have always been impressed with the Dunlavy line and you would be hard-pressed to find a speaker that presents a more holographic image (at least within the sweet spot). You can get a Dunlavy V used for about $6500 but I do not think you would see a huge difference from the IVA.

The production issues with the VMPS RM/X have finaly been resolved. Dealers should have them for audition within the next few weeks.
