I appreciate both of your opinions and i think both viewpoints are valid. My viewing distance currently i think is 12'. With the VP-150 i need to crank the volume up pretty high which is why i was so concerned with the VP-180s soundstage. If i need to crank it as loud as i currently am, Im afraid i'd start clipping the speakers. And if i moved it upstairs and upgraded to the M80s i think i'd be in trouble. This train of thought had me looking into the Emotiva amps and pre-amps for future upgrades.
