I have ordered the VP150 so we'll see how I like it I'll post my impressions when I get it. I'm most interested in surround music (SACD and DVD-A), so I need a dedicated centre channel. I'm fairly stuck with the placement also, but have it alligned with the tweeters of the mains. If I like the VP150, my next question will be if the M80 will be a good upgrade to my mains. Their much more expensive to return if I don't like them so I'm a bit more hesitent to try. We'll see how it goes with the VP150 first.
