Hmm. So what you're saying, Tom, is a center that's a better match for the M80s but would still fit on top of my 27" CRT.

Can you have them make it really short vertically, too?

Aperion's 6C has the configuration I'm looking for. However, it measures 8.5"H x 25"W x 11"D and I'd like to see it a bit narrower but deeper to accommodate placement on an equipment rack.
I still think there's no compelling reason to put this into an M60 cabinet; MUCH too close to the existing VP180 in form factor.
I'm with you Tom. The VP180 works for those with a dedicated HT that has space, but it would be nice to have something a little more compact to choose from. People could then choose between the VP160 and VP180 based on their space constraints.

John, I believe that the measurement is nearly always stated as being to the outsides if the speaker frame. Although measuring to the middle of the cone surround would be an attempt to show the actual effective radiating diameter, I've rarely seen that measurement.

Yeah, Tom; I'd also tend to agree. In my view generally the same speaker as the mains, from M0 to M80, subject to available space for a vertical speaker, should be used. If a horizontal speaker was wanted, for a "big" one only the VP180 is needed. For a smaller one, instead of the VP100 and VP150, W T/M W configurations, such as Aperion and others use, would be suitable.
