All I can say now is "I get it." I understand why the M80 owners were so gung ho. Direct comparison to the M50s was eye opening. So was sitting in the room when my wife was watching a nature show on hawks in New York. They had some wonderful classical music that I really should be able to identify playing, and it sounded marvelous. This, off of a TiVo recording (probably on High quality) of analog cable!
However, I'm still wondering about the highs. Alan, do you have any ideas about this one? We all heard it, and I have a hard time believing it's a positioning issue. We played with the toe on the 80s a bit (and ended up pulling them out farther than I will have them in the future). It's not like I notice a difference in normal listening. It just pains me to think that it might be a source difference; I can't afford and can't rationalize changing out the H/K for something different!
