I'm the kinda guy who goes thru a lot of stuff, early adopter, innovator type. New cell phones, pda's, laptops, etc... I got lots of toys and I am always looking for ways to improve them. But upgraditis after 3 months of m22s, vp100, and qs4's is non existent. I like em that much. So, if your on the edge and looking for a reason to purchase, here it is.

Same here! I've got M22s and the VP100. I've somehow managed to ignore all those glowing posts about the VP150.
If I do upgrade my speakers, the surrounds (Cambridge Soundworks) will be the first to go.

I assume that the VP100 is better than advertised?

May I introduce you to the Parasound Halo? I won't link it because doing so would require that I see the site which isn't something I'm willing to do at the moment. Google is your friend.

I dunno. I'm sure the VP150 is a better center channel, but I have no complaints with my VP100. It replaced a Paradigm CC350, which was a larger (and more expensive) speaker. The VP100 noticeably trounced it in performance and clarity.

I guess that will be a future purchase, then.

You had to go and bring up the parasound halo. I should refrase my previous post, I have no urge to upgrade within my budget, I still have dream gear.

Once you've achieved the level of performance that Axiom speakers deliver at their price points, you'd have to significantly increase your budget to noticeably surpass that performance. The law of diminishing returns is a serious problem for high-end speaker manufacturers. The more money you spend, it seems, the less each additional dollar buys you.
