Very nice, Mojo! It'll be nice to hear your impressions. I ordered a pair of M5HPs myself with the recent promotion (from the Factory Outlet to save even more). I would have ordered two pairs if I had the disposable income at the time, just so I'd be set with direct-firing speakers for my eventual move to a full Atmos setup.

I'm going to try one of the M5HPs briefly as a center in place of my current VP180 just to see if I want to return to a vertical center. I used to use an M22, and while I felt pretty satisfied with it, I did notice the extra heft in the VP180.

Also interested in what you have to say about the ADA. I have a 1500-4 to run my LFRs and a 1000-4 with one channel not being utilized to run my center and two of the surrounds. I've been really happy with how clean they sound at any volume level I've tried, but my experience is limited to A/V receiver amplification and a brief amount of time with an Emotiva amp.
