I agree, the VP150 is a good center, but not a great one. I think in comparison to my M60's (which cost about the same on a per-speaker basis), the VP150 is just not in the same league. Off-axis dispersion may be good, but I can't help but notice that the speaker just sounds a bit 'thin' compared to the M60's, and those dual tweeters make it extremely unforgiving of any harshness or sibilance in the source material.

If Axiom were to make a VP200 with 2 larger woofers, a mid and tweeter in a 3-way design, I'd be first in line to buy it. Again I want to say that the VP150 is not a bad speaker; it's much better than my previous DefTech ProCenter 100. I just don't think the VP150 measures up to the performance and value offered by the other Axiom speakers I own (M60ti's, M3ti's, QS8).
