Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater VP100 vs VP150

Alan,

I just received my VT-100 to complete the setup with M60s and I feel like I want to upgrade to VT-150.
What is the Axiom upgrade policy you are referring to?
I only found 30-day free trial guarantee with the customer paying the shipping cost.

The reason I want to upgrade is that my cable box always sends digital output to the receiver, which results in non-surround channels playing center channel only.
So I think VT-150 would provide richer sound in these mono mode and of course in the regular surround mode.

Thanks,
Vitaly

Speculation:

1. Axiom will use the Merak cabinet for a center channel speaker with 2 x upgraded 6.5" drivers, a 7"x3" horn tweeter;

2. Axiom will make a new cabinet for center channel speaker with 2 x 6.5" drivers, a 7"x3" horn tweeter AND 2 outboard Titanium tweeters. (I'd consider one of these!)

Hey, 2x6, would you stop please!!!

I will have to order a VP150 pretty soon, and if that gorgeous new model does not come out within the 30-day trial period, I will be damned...

Anyway, I do not care too much about horns, so I feel a bit better. LOL

Cheers!

I finally got around to upgrading from the VP50 to the VP100 to go with my M22's. WOW! What a difference. Just sorry I didn't go with the VP100 in the first place.

p.s. My factory outlet model had no defect visible to the naked eye. Bonus!

b man, just wondering why you didn't jump to the VP-150 if you were upgrading? Aren't you afraid of getting the upgrade bug again? The VP-150 is an awesome center channel.

I initially bought M60, VP-100, QS8, & EP-175 package.

I did sent the Vp-100 back in exchange for a VP-150 and it is a big improvement for little money.

The center channel in an HT setup is very important!

Damnit you people. Guess I'll sell some of my old crap to get the 150!

The answer is real simple. My TV stand isn't wide enough to accomodate the VP150. I don't want it on top of the TV and I just bought the stand not long ago, so replacing it was not an option. The answer was upgrade to the VP100.

I'll probably get upgraditis sooner or later, but maybe by then Axiom will have a new version of the VP150 available.
