I believe it is my ears personally that have a hard time with the vp150/m22/qs8 drivers. For some reason they get into my eardrums and create havoc. Please don’t flame because of my personal tastes. I think the reason they are ok in the m60's is because they are such a small part of the whole speaker, they seem to get washed along the way.

As for the q8s review I just find I prefer the direct sound over the ambient sound of the qs8, again just my personal preference.
