Oh, I see now. So, YOU are the expert on center speakers -- very pleased to meet you! I never knew that ALL of them are a poor match and anyone who disagrees with your point is on "their" corporate payroll (I guess I'm not enough of a conspiracy theorist to know who "they" are -- oh well, nobody's perfect!) and is obviously not nearly the authority that YOU are!

Obviously a center speaker expert like yourself has listened to EVERY center speaker on the market and have actually heard every one of them in a proper 5.1 placement (and since you're such a surround sound expert, I won't bore you with the details about the ITU-775 reference placement) with the proper levels and delay timing. Having done such due diligence gives you the right and authority to factually say that all center speakers do not integrate properly no matter what. Since your word is indisputable fact, my observation that the Vandersteen center speakers are a seamless match for their mains is clearly in error, and I need to get my ears checked.
