I went from direct surrounds to QS4s and at first I was a bit unimpressed becuase I was expecting a huge night/day difference. But after listening to them for a while, the fact that they aren't "in-your-face" is what makes them great! They are enveloping and immersive, making echoes, rain and effects more realistic.

I would recommend saving up for a bit more and then getting a set of QS rather than buying M2/3s now.
