Hey, pmbuko. Have you heard of any drawbacks to having two vertical centers? How about two vertical VP150s?

Getting us mixed up again, huh? I'm the one with the long hair, he's the tall one...

Anyway, I haven't heard any drawbacks to it. I raised the question about a year ago, and Alan said it would be fine, impedance-wise. I dunno about the 150s, as they're set up for a different dispersal pattern (according to what I've read). But that would look really sweet.

Sorry about that mix up, it was past my bedtime.
I was thinking that dual vertical VP150s would look awesome and perhaps tie the dialogue to the screen better. In terms of timbre matching (w/ my m60s) another pair of m60s wedged against the tv would be good - and the m60s were designed to be placed vertically - and their 8ohm impedence (4ohms when wired together right?) would present less problems for the receiver. The difference in price between the two is only $50.
However, I'm guessing nobody has tried using an m60 as a vertical center. Would be an expensive experiment.

Hi kcarlile,

I have it on the left of my 25''tv. But then my sister who knows very little of HT did complain about how it looked - so I can't say about how unobtrusive it is. Still, I'm very happy with the sound.
