I would have to agree with John. I have not heard the VP100 specifically but i have heard other centres in our home system with the same configuration.
The wider VP150 with end tweeters provided a much wider soundstage and better off-axis presentation than the smaller, driver limited versions with only a single, centre tweeter.
I did not like the M22 as a centre channel either but i am surprised you did not hear any real differences b/w the VP100 and VP150 especially off axis.

The expense of two M22s for this recommended purpose is a bit much. One must also note the extra power issues required to wire and run it.

Sounds like you had a fun time playing with the configurations though. I tried some nifty things awhile back like a vertical VP150 and putting my EP350 on hockey pucks.
I really do not recall why, but i do have pics somewhere.
