I just upgraded from M22 and VP150 v1's to the M80v3, VP180 and EP800v3.
I agree with Nickbuol and Jakewash’s comments. I thought the M80 was the biggest bang for the buck in my upgrade. The M80v3 was much richer sounding with the added bass yet was still very clear and detailed. I also felt there was a much smoother sound to the highs. I couldn’t get this level of “sophistication” from my M22v1 and dual subwoofer setup.
The VP180 voice matching was a nice improvement over the VP150v1, but it was a smaller upgrade for the dollars invested. I had the same feeling about adding the EP800. It’s a really nice upgrade, but it took lots of dollars to get that smaller improvement.
Compared to my original “WOW” when I got the M22’s, only the M80v3 upgrade came close to giving me the same feeling.
