Still waiting for the VP180HP, but we had a BLAST listening to the speakers this weekend coupled with the newly introduced Amazon Music HD. I tried playing the speakers "nude" but I must be a little OCD and the tons of driver circles were too distracting for me. Put the grills back on. BTW, they are so good, and the ADA1500 is so amazing I already have an okay from the wife to buy another ADA1500 for the bar area. The VIP Black Friday deal may be just enough to go through with it.
