Hello, Doc. Well, I've owned both 60's and 80's through the years. While they are very similar in many respects and have the same sound qualities, the 80's do give you a little more in the bass category because of the larger cabinet. In addition, since you get dual tweeters and mids, they are also a little more detailed overall at all volumes. It is not a huge difference, but noticable for those that have heard both.
