I have the m22's and a HSU STF-2 and it absolutely rocks the house. Those 22's get loud enough for any sane listener without any distortion. It seems everyone is telling you to go for the m60's and save for a sub, but I know what you're feeling--you want great sound NOW! Trust me, the 22's + STF-2 will not disappoint you and should cost you $749-799 depending on whether HSU has a promotion or not. One guy said that 22's plus stands nearly equal the cost of the 60's....huh?!? Who the heck buys $400 speaker stands?!? I got mine for $40 and they're just fine. Another guy said you can place the 60's so that the angle to the walls reinforces the bass...yeah, kinda, but nothing near the clarity and depth of bass you'll get with a good sub.

Anyway, all that's to say is that if your budget is about $800, then the 22's plus a sub will make you very happy.
