Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater bought a vp 180

just purchased a new vp 180 and thought I would give a review after a week or so. I have v1 m80's on the front and some Energy Veritas V-Mini Bookshelf Speakers on the rear only because axiom does not have anything small enough for my room. I have a lamp next to me and not much room to mount them. The drivers on the vp180 sound very similar to the older m80's except for the new tweeters they are a lot better than the older ones, having this big center is nice and the front soundstage blends in perfectly. I have always had large speakers on the front and not enough center to keep the voices in check but this unit is just plain awesome.

Hey glad you like the 180 ,it is a nice speaker
Did you have a center speaker before this?what was it?

I have been out of surround sound for a while I had some Dibeisi speakers they were ok but the center was too small as I had 3 home made 3 way speakers on each front with a power amp pushing them. I blew a few of them up and bought the m80's. I watch a lot of movies and wanted to get at least 5 speakers hooked up. I am pretty happy with this setup for now. I don't know if I will even hook up the center surrounds I found they didn't really do much in most movies. Im going to buy an ada 1500 2 or 3 channel amp or try and find a used bryston 4b, my amp actually does fine for movies but when I listen to music it is struggling at only 110 watts a channel.
