Even though the 80s reach lower on paper, I think you will both like the bass on the 660s better in your rooms.

The imaging will be sharper with easier to listen to upper mids and highs. The soundstage will also be deeper and wider. Once properly placed, I expect the 660s will acoustically disappear.

Cork, I can't wait to see that finish I was contemplating that same combo I'm sure it'll be really nice. I've never gotten anything but black oak so I'm excited for a change of pace.

I have M80 V4s in my theater set up but really haven't been in a room or house where I can crank it and let them shine so I'll be interested to hear your thoughts on the comparison especially with some power! They sound good in my apt but have barely been able to be worked out.

Hey J, I really look forward to your reviews of the 660, been thinking about that speaker. I love my M100s and every other axiom speaker I have, which is almost all of them less the omnis! Please take some pics and share!

I def will! Should be shipping soon, hopefully this week. I was up north listening to the M5s this past weekend and man they sound so good, very excited to see how much improvement there is with the DSP and Omni design.

Cork, when do you get yours?? the M80/660 shoot out is going to be an interesting comparison. Are you going to be able to A/B them or just swap back and forth? I plan to keep the M5s hooked up and listen to 3 songs I'm very familiar with that imagine really well and then hook up the 660s and play the same. Not very scientific but will hopefully give me a little comparison.

Mojo - Any song suggestions for a comparison? Currently thinking, Norah Jones - Black Hole Sun, London Orion Orchestra - Shine on you Crazy Diamond, and Buddy Guy - Come Back Muddy

Unfortunately no, haven’t even shipped yet. Yesterday was 21 business days from order. I emailed JC and called a few times to see what’s up but no answer or reply frown

Getting very antsy! Haha

No worries man, you will get them. It's the wait that kills us. Been there, done that. I'm sure you will be seeing them ship soon. I really look forward to your review. Have faith.

Today is Canada Day a national holiday, Axiom will be closed. Also here in Ontario we are still coming out of a two month lockdown, phase 2 starts tomorrow. I'm sure they are trying their hardest to do business with a skeleton staff and like every other business dealing with a shortage of materials. It will come, It will be worth it!
