whats up doc,if you are looking for more highs,i would go with the m80s,more tweeters=more highs.they are a great speaker from top to bottom,i too play the guitar(well still have my old gear anyway) and listen to a lot of different players and the m80s sound great at low and high volumes.so i would say,stay annoyed a bit longer, save up and get a nice pair of m80s....good luck....ron
