Subtlety ? do any American amps do it?
I think the Theta Dreadnought or especially the Citadels more than meet the muster of any of the fine European products out there. 
'New' Gallo Reference vs. 'old' B&W Matrix 802
The Gallos easily bested the 802s when I auditioned them recently.They are really that good.I am now waiting for the sub amp they are offering to drive the second set of coils.I also own Martin Logan Odyess and Vandersteen 3A Sig. 
Speaker advise needed
I own Martin Logans on one of my setups.I have the Gallos on another.I would recomend the Gallos for your area.More range and less critical of postion.I would put them up against my Martin Logan Odysses. 
Von Schweikert Subwoofers
I have auditioned the Von Schwiekert and it sounded just ok.Ended up with Vandersteens instead.Have not listened to the other two,but from what I have read they would also outperform the Von Schwiekert. 
Which Amp?????
I auditioned the Anthem and Parasound and Theta.I would say that the Parasound and the Anthem were in the same league.The Theta though was in a totally different league, with a huge difference in sound.It is free of the solid state sound and sound... 
Vandersteen 3A Sig vs. Von Schweikert VR4 Jr.
I auditioned several diferent brands recently when I was choosing.I went to a dealer who really was pushing the Linn's.While I was waiting for him to change to a different setup, he put me in a room with the Vandersteens.They were the only speaker...
