ok. i think i am just going to order one and see if i am happy with it or not...regardless of the controversy surrounding this center channel. if i am not happy, i will sell my M60Ti's and probably go with something else...i will let my own ears be the judge.
i gotta say, i SURE wish i could take these m60's to a store somewhere and do serious comparisons with paradigm studio 100's, some energy's, totems, etc.....so i am sure i will be happy with what i get.

There shouldn't be any reason why you can't take them to a store. Otr, you could bring those other speakers into your home to compare them.

well, the reason i can't is there is only one store here who sells paradigm, and i have done this before. they are a little fed up with me i think, since i never buy anything from them. also, no one sells B&W around here, or NHT...only Energy at a different store, but not the Veritas..only the conisseurs...

It's hard when your nearest "big city" (Detroit) is in another country so you have to import and export every time you want to try something out. Windsor is beautiful but I never saw a huge audio retail presence there.

just about the only place in windsor is audio two, and its basically a dump inside imo, but its where i got my stf-2
