If the goal is to match similarly priced speakers then...

Another speaker I always wanted to demo against the M60's is the Triangle Zerius. Same price range...Stereophiles Class C or B recommends.

Also has a ti tweeter but warmer midrange and bass due to membrane type drivers.

...speakers of similar price silly.
I guess that would be the M60 vs 550's?
RE: Triangle, I'd also love to see a review of those. I have heard that very line (I believe) before and was flat out impressed. If they had a decent center/surrounds in my price range I possibly would not be about to buy Axiom.

craig, also need to keep in mind, there are some of us who don't have a receiver to drive the 80's, and it's been said, they require more room for placement.

TwoDan... Good point. I also just received a Harmon Kardon 630 Receiver... and have the 340's hooked to that and a Pioneer 563 universal player... A lot of the listening will be done with this system, as it is a bit more representative as to what will normally be used. The McIntosh/Modded Denon system is great... but a $6500 front end/$1000 speaker set up is NOT the norm...
Keep em coming guys.... this is good stuff

Last I check the zerius is $1200 retail with a street price of $1100 unless I am incorrect...so that would be in the same league as the M80 at least.

I did find the Triangles at a dealer in San Francisco... They are a pretty limited line, but if someone can get someone from Triangle interested in being involved, please let me know...
