I use dual M2s and they work very will with my M80s. From what I understand, the M180 is a real step up over any other config, but other than that, I like the idea of the M2 or M22 for center duties if you can fit it into your setup.

The idea of an M22 for a center sounds great with the M80s. I was thinking of wall mounting the M22 above my TV screen if I went with that setup. It does not seem like the ideal height for speakers to be located, but will that work?

If the M2s work with the 80s, I would be interested in that very much. I would just wall mount my TV and place the M2 on my TV stand. The M2 would definitely be dwarfed by the M80s in appearance, but I am more concerned about audio quality than I am with looks.

It will work, but the best situation is to have the tweeters of the left/center/right as close as possible to ear level when seated. Some have been able to angle the center up or down towards your ears which helps.
