So, my question is, I like how the M80's can handle high volume levels. Can the VP-160 handle pretty high volume levels also?

Second, I like the fact that the VP-150 was rated for 400watts but the VP-160 is only rated for 250watts. Should this be a concern? Does this mean the VP-150 is actually louder?? How could that be?

Don't worry about the watt rating. Just pump as much power to that bad boy as you want (within reason)!

In even a huge residential room, 250 watts should be MORE than enough to damage your ears.


With great power comes Awesome irresponsibility.

It's not about damaging your ears...

...it's about damaging your ears with top quality sound wink
