The 2 experts have spoken but I'll just chime in with...
The M22's are one of the most instrumusical (you wont find this word in the dictionary) speakers that I have listened to. The instruments just shine through. They stand out.
Just last night, I was listening to something not exactly classical but nonetheless worth mentionning - Dream a little Dream track from 'The Very Best of Louis Armstrong' album.
The voice - wow, smooth, detailed and crystal clear.
The piano, the guitar - every string, every note is so crystal clear.
Whether you put up the volume or keep it low, it sounds incredible. It's almost like you are sitting in the front row at the live performance.
I also listen to Indian classical music (tabla, sitar, etc) on the M22's and the M60's. Both have similar characteristics when it comes to detail and clarity. If you can afford it, go for the M60's because you get the extra bass.
Pricewise, there is nothing that is comparable to M22's. Enough with words. The best way to decide is for you to listen to a pair and be amazed...
Good luck !
