Ajax, I'm looking forward to it. I know what the 5's sound like and of course I know what the 80's sound like but to have them side by side will be fun. The Monitor's are a darn nice speaker. Not much for bass but they are one of the more detailed speakers I have heard. For some reason the Monitor's really shine when run with Parasound stuff. Not sure why but the John Curl stuff and Monitor get along really well. Anyway, when this happens I will post back.
