I never meant to state that there was a flaw with the M80's giving too much bass. I think the balance of the speaker is perfect. There is the odd recording that has over emphasized bass and the only way to tame the M80's on these recordings is to reduce the bass on my pre amp. Again this is very rare and has way more to do with the engineering of that recording than the M80's.

I was just stating with the M60’s, I probably wouldn’t have to touch the bass control and could add a sub to make up the difference in the bottom end to match the M80’s. I however choose to listen to my music in 2.0 not 2.1. Personal choice here and there is no right or wrong answer.
