Installed 2 new M80's yesterday, to replace Energy 22 Ref which went to the back for surround duty.


First impressions after listening for about 1 hour:

Better detail in the mid and high frequencies; voices, both male and female are truer than through the Energy's, in fact they're very impressive.
Ambience is better defined too and sounds more convincing.
Treble is rendered with very high fidelity, is very smooth and detailed (i need to listen to triangles...)

That's it for now, i might give more in-depth comments later on as i get more familiar with the sound.

My brain's break-in was done and finished in just a few seconds, minutes at most; i adopted the sound right away and got a big smile on my face too.

Thanks to all who gave their comments on those speakers; they helped me make a good decision.
