I would like to hear the difference between my M22s and either the M60s or M80s. I live in the Washington, DC area.

The problem is that I have no intention to purchase in 2008. Maybe one day - years away I will, but not soon at all. So, I don't want to impose when there may be nothing in it for the owner of said beauties.

But, if beer can close the deal, maybe there is hope. Please don't volunteer anyone else. I don't want to be any bigger pain in the butt than I already am.

Thanks

Pardon the Patriots logo - I have been a fan for 27 years - since back in the Jim Plunkett days. And we lost! Have mercy!

Well if you are ever in Calgary, Alberta, I would let you have a listen with a direct comparison between the M22 and M80.

I was in Calgary about three years ago. Went up to see Banff and Lake Louise, too! Very cool! It was June so it wasn't too cold. Rodeo had just left town I think.

I'm here in Arlington with a pair of M60s you can listen to. We can set up a side by side listening test. Drop me an e-mail.

Capn,

I do have an intent to purchase and would love the chance to listen. I live in NoVA. Perhaps we can meet up at Rock Bottom first and have a few brews.

Roger

Roger - I dropped off the face of the earth there for a bit.

Rock bottom and a beer sounds great. Then, we could grab a listen, too.

Let me know when you want to try to get together. I'm around next weekend, bachelor style. (hopefully, that didn't sound like a come on...)
