Right now, it's 12' wide and 43'deep with the rear surrounds placed behind the couch at 16' deep. I will be moving soon, so the speakers will come with me to a more proportional sound-proofed area to meet the WAF. Right now I can't turn the music up late at night when I listen to music and she's sleeping because the bass radiates up into the bedroom. In the new house, it will be as far away from the bedroom as possible. I've read all the reviews about the M22 and I'd love to try them out. It's going to be tough for me to get rid of the SM-152s. They are the best I've heard so far. It's hard to wrap my mind around the logic of 2 5.25" woofers putting out better music than a 15" woofer and 2 4" midranges (one to one).
