I have the M80's and I can tell you that they do carry good bass. Although that may depend on whether or not you can set your crossovers low. I keep my M80's set at 60hz so and they sound good.

I prefer to listen to music with my subwoofer on but once in awhile, depending on the songs, I forget to turn it on and don't really realize sometimes until I'm playing something where I know the bass should sound deeper.

Without the sub, I think you'll be pleased as long as you could set your crossovers lower. The M80's do have good range.

instead of getting the 500 only...

get the 60's from factory outlet as they'll work with your amp fine now and be plenty loud.

And get a HSU sub, vtf3 or stf3

You'll be surprised at the cost.

I have the AVR 800. It is a 5 channel dolby pro logic.

I have been googling your receiver. 60 watts per channel. I can't tell if it has sub preout or not. M60tis may have to be the way to go. Tell me more about the old Denon.

You are quite correct in that my current receiver will not be able to drive the M80's. I will first upgrade my receiver, then my speakers. Thanks to all for the comments.
