I've seen several threads comparing these 2 overall. You guys are a great resource. I guess the consensus is that the performance is very similar, the 80s may be better for a huge area, the 60s offer more flexibility with the receiver but offer plenty of authority.

Would it make a difference in my case if there will be no music from my system? I have a dedicated media room (13W X 27L X 9H). I'll be using a 7.1 setup, and it's only for movies and football watching. Just for grins, let's say money was no object. Is there any reason for me to get the 80s in this size of a room? I know some of you say there's no such thing as too much, but I'm wondering if there's any advantage at all to getting the 80...I'll never be cranking these things to the max anyway.
