Well you can thank the quality of the M80's for that .:-)

My previous speakers i used the sub , but from what i have heard today , i set the receiver to pure direct and they sound great.

It really depends on the music. When I first got my system, I flipped back and forth between 2.1 and 2.0 and found that there was no real difference for a lot of music because there is no content below 40Hz (Clapton unplugged was one I tested).

For my pipe organ disc, there is a definite difference.

I guess it also might depend on room.

I was listening to Simply Red "Picture Book" and the last song on the cd really shows the dynamic range of these speakers with 2.0 .

The kick drum was hitting me in the chest which i love as being a drummer.

I really noticed the drums on Clapton Unplugged and even more on Gabriel's Security.

Those outriggers look nice. 15 Lb. should lower the center of gravity a lot!
