B&W 801III vs. B&W HTM-1..

The title is very odd, yes. Here goes.

I am running a B&W 801III as a center channel. I use 801III for my right and left speakers, and soon to be using 801II as surrounds. I have thoughts of moving to the HTM-1, not for space reason, but WONDER if I gain anything by moving to the HTM-1 center channel?

I can't imagine so, but if so, please share....

I am using a McIntosh MC-162, biamped 160 x 2, for power to the center channel.

Good point. I should mention, the 801III is center under a screen, so directional issues are not present.

Thanks,Dan

Thanks for the input Argent. What I don't understand is a 'vertical arrangement' is not ideal. Why is that?
It seems to work wonderfully. I have read this elsewhere but not sure what the reasoning is behind it.

Thanks again......
