Hi Kodiak

I agree with you. There is an honesty to the M80s. They are designed to produce accurate bass as low as they go, and are not amped up to produce bloated or flabby bass just to go lower.

These M80s probably sound as good as they possibly can thanks to the BAT amps and preamp.

What preamp are you using?
