I've owned both the 60's and 80's. They are both great speakers. The 80's will give you a little more detail, because of the dual tweets and mid's. However, the 60's are still very detailed.
Also, the 80's give you a bit more in the bass category, I believe based on larger cabinet. Again, the 60's put out some potent bass. I even had one audition where the guy didn't believe I had my sub turned off, the 60's and 80's are that good.
You have to decide based on your budget, if you want a killer bookshelf like the 22's that incorporate greate with a sub. Or, get some larger floorstanders like the 60's and 80's. The 80's are the king of the hill for a reason, but the 60's are a darn close second....
