For sure, you need some patience with any system to get the best out of it Absolutely. It has taken me 5 months to really get used to the elevated sq of my system and sort out what is in the recording and what is my sucky room. Now I wish I had the cash to really pursue room treatments.

Every speaker I've ever owned have been very colored, laid back, muddy, what ever you may want to call them. So I can definately see where, upon hearing the M80's or any truely high end speaker for the first time, I might feel the highs over power the rest of the music. I think that is true in a lot of cases. I am listening to the synth in ELP's Lucky Man as I type this and I just love the 'bite' that it has. It sounds very real to me. As I have written many times before, I love that live, front row sound.

Now I wish I had the cash to really pursue room treatments. Just think, if you really had cash you could just have some 'pro' come in and do all that for you the day your system arrived. But then where would all the fun be? If I had the most ideal, fantastic, bullet proof, can't be beat system ever made in my living room right now, then what would I have to look forward to? (besides years of great sounding music that is) I guess I've always been more of a tinkerer than anything. Just like my motorcycle, I bought it 4 years ago and have done just about everything I can think of doing to it. But now that I'm almost out of things to do to it, I'm ready to sell it and start from scratch on a new bike. For me it's always been the journey and not the destination that's been the most fulfulling. And besides, who's to say this 'pro' who'd come in to tune your system would have the same taste in accoustics as you anyhow? You just can't get around personal tastes no matter how hard you try!

Just think, if you really had cash you could just have some 'pro' come in and do all that for you I don't think my landlord would appreciate a guy with a jackhammer showing up to 'fix' my room.  I am actually hoping that with realestate in Canada softening, I might be able to afford a house again in the near future. That may do a lot more for me than most room treatments in this concrete box.

Just to let you know Micah, I'm going to grab your mask off when you walk through the door.

Sounds like a good deal to me. You can't dring worth a darn through a mask anyway.
