Hi Melomann,

The tonal balance of the M3ti is very close to that of the M50s, and it will work fine as a center as long as you aren't in a really big room at a listening distance greater than about 10 or 12 feet.

If you are in a big room/greater listening distance, you would be better advised to go with a VP150.
