I believe you have given up on using Finder to quickly. In Finder, Press command-1 for icon view. Use the tab key and Voiceover will announce the name of the file selected. Press command-2 for list view and arrow through the list. Again, Voiceover announces the selection. You can also start typing the name of a file and the selection will jump to it. Hope that helps.
