Big:

I found the TonyGeno post. It seems that he thought that he was having problems with the VP-150. There really wasn't a general discussion on center channel speakers.

Maybe there should be a VP-200 and VP-250.

Just a thought or two.

I thought you would be interested in the discussion involving driver arrays. Maybe that was in a different thread?

I finally gave up on using a center.My wife, who has great hearing had trouble hearing the dialogue and I wear hearing aids and really had trouble.I bought a pair of Def Tech BP 10 Bs to replace my m-22s and set things up using a phantom center.We watched a movie Sat. night and the phantom center was much better.I 'm getting rid of the 22s and the VP 150 on e-bay.

In reply to:

Does anyone else find that product name funny in this situation?

Like "I could hardly see the TV screen until I bought a pair of Blind Tech 605s."

Sorry to hear about your difficulties. Glad you found a solution.

I received my VP-150 this afternoon and WOW does it make a difference. I have been watching TV this evening and it is amazing how the room seems to fill with fuller, richer sound.

I ordered it last Thursday evening and here it is. I am going to have some fun listening to a DVD with the full 5.1, but I guess that will have to wait until another evening.

Sometimes fact is stranger than fiction. I'm glad that he found a good solution. The main thing is that he is happy with his unit.

I'm happy with my unit too. I just wish all the spammers on the internet knew it.

But Peter, are you sure that you wouldn't be better off with a bigger unit?

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

Hey I thought Randy Johnson was/has the big unit?

Bernard, get those m80's and rock on! I noticed you live in Alabama. Whereabouts? I lived there from the year of 91' to 93'.
