Saturn, thanks for the Toronto store/audition info I asked for last night. I thought more about it, and it turns out I won't need to make the all day round trip after all.

I JUST hung up from placing my order and the M60s, VP100 and QS8s, in Boston Cherry, will be here on Friday!!!

Believe me, I worked through the permutations to get myself to the VP150. It just isn't going to work. Several posts, including yours here, let me the know that the VP100 is a good choice as well. Given the center I am replacing, I'm pretty sure I will experience a noticeable improvement. Additionally, Joe (at Axiom) and I discussed 100 vs. 150 at length and his input was that the M60s would also help with the front soundstage, adding a bit of "phantom center" to the 100.

Friday should be a fun day.
Thanks for the input.
