Looking at the specs. and 2-way vs. 3-way makes me think about the fact that my LFE crossover is set to 80Hz and the VP150 is 7.5 dB down at 80 Hz. The center is not typically used for these frequencies and I don't hear anything missing either just spec. wise.

Not sure how many centers are < 3 dB down at 80 Hz with VP150 sensitivity and price. Probably not many.
