I have to say light maple is the best looking finnish i've seen so far from Axiom.
As for the center, i will indeed have to change it. I do not know if i will upgrade for the VP180. I think it might be a little to big for my space. My goal is to buy a new tv (Plasma 50inch) from Panasonic or Samsung and set my VP150 above the tv. So i will have to think about it.
And by the way, thank to correct my word, i am a french canadien not my fault smile
