I've had my M80HP's (with new tweeters - thanks, Brent!) for several days now and I'm very happy with them. Everything my V2's did, these do better. Lord knows I put those speakers through the rock n' roll wringer. Do speakers get tired? The HP's seem to do more with a little less power. They still need a sub to sound good in my large listening room but, strangely, my old Boston sub seems to sound better with them.

Anyway, I'm glad I did the trade-up and I highly recommend the HP's!
