Just my opinion tho...after having M3 centres with M22 mains, I ended up ordering M2 centres and they match a whole lot better than M3s...


If I can get this harshness under control I will be upgrading from the M22's to the M80's using the tradeup program. I would assume the 150 would mesh better with M80's.


It is my feeling that the M60 would suit you much better, as the highs are nowhere near as forward and the M80s. I feel the VP150 actually matches better to the M60s as well. The VP100 plays a little more cleanly(bright) than the 150 so I would say it would match the M22/M80 unless in a medium to big room and the volume is high, which you seem to like.

M60 and VP150 is what you should be going for, IMO.
