old stand:



New stand: (I have raised the TV a few inches and also put the rubber feet on the VP180 stand since the first photo in this thread.) I added some spacers on the feet to raise the vp180 a even a bit more and angled it slightly up:




Also, I spent some time in the attic today and did a couple of wall fishes to run my sub cable from behind the TV to the back corner of my room.





My vp150 was on that same low shelf for the last 4+ years that I have had my axioms. Going from having the vp150 as low as it was to where the vp180 is now is a world of difference. I have no desire to place it any higher as it sounds amazing. Hell, it sounded good even on the lower stand.

Now I need a sub to fill that hole on my front wall...
