I use a program called dBpoweramp. As long as you have the AC3 codec(Dolby Digital) installed on your computer, you can convert MP3s etc. into Dolby Digital format.

Jason,

As I was driving away this morning I realized how the strapless 80s were like 80s minus a tweet. I felt pretty foolish :-).

Don't you know you are supposed to try these things out first, then go to work, where are your priorities?;\)

Jason, you're correct about the relative number of drivers in the M80 compared with the "unstrapped" M82, but keep in mind that the M22 mid/woofers in the M82 continue down into the mid/upper bass to at least 60Hz, resulting in more drivers being active in that bass area than there are with the M80.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

I guess that could be why the M82 sounds smoother then the M80 as there is more blending going on, but not enough to destroy the soundstage.

I am going to hold out for Axioms next flagship speaker (the M100, with 2 tweets, 3 mids, and 2 woofers).

After thinking about the M82 that you guys made, I find it hard to believe that Axiom is not already aware of this superiority and has already designed an M100

I am sure Axiom is very aware of it. I doubt the next model will only have 7 drivers though. I'd be shooting for at least 12 :-).
