Hi ;
I gave our daughter and son in law a pair of these when they came out quite a while ago and are getting them regifted back since they are moving and downsizing.
Anyone have any experience with these speakers ?
I think they were designed by Henry Kloss and originally built in Maine or Massachusetts before offshoring later into plastic budget designs
thanks for any thoughts you might have to share

Each MDF enclosure features a beautiful real-wood veneer finish and contains an 8" woofer, a 3 ½" midrange driver and a silk fabric tweeter.
The speakers may be positioned vertically or horizontally.
The versatile M80’s tweeter/mid-range mounting plate can be repositioned, in case you choose to place them horizontally.
The M80’s can also be bi-wired."
