I just checked my notes and found that I *did* think the VP100 sounded a bit better than the M2 as a center. This was with M60 mains, not M2 mains, however.

The difference was fairly small so I still think 3 M2s would be great, just didn't want to leave you feeling that there was no benefit to the VP100. I only have 2 M2s so have never tried 3 across the front but M2 as a center with M60 mains sure sounded great and there are other people on here who swear by M2/M3 centers.

The only catch is that you have to keep them vertical (vertical and inverted seems to be best). They don't sound quite as good lying on their sides.

So... guess I'm saying that I would spend $$ on upgrading the surrounds before I spent $$ upgrading the center, but both would be money well spent.
