Perhaps your subs didn't play low enough. Subs should only provide 80hz to 20hz, or even 40hz to 20nz, depending on how low your mains will play. Anything from 80hz and lower is non-directional. For M22's 80hz to 20hz works well. For M80's, you could use the 40hz to 20hz settings.

+1 on everything that has been said on 1 EP350 vs 2 EP125.

I second this and the other comments as well about going with an EP350. If you feel the enclosure takes up too much room, then I would consider M80s and scrap the sub altogether. My next setup may have full range speakers without a sub.

I have already try the M80 in the room and the bass was totally overkill.

if the bass was overkill, then maybe the M80s were too near the walls; or you're just using this to mean "more than expected"!
