I'll be ordering Axioms for two rooms, both of which are quite "bright," with hardwood floors, low ceilings, no rugs, no drapes, very little upholstered furniture.

I've read here that some find the more accurate Axioms, e.g. M22 and M60, to be on the "bright" side, while others don't experience this problem. I also know that resistors are available to moderate any perceived brightness.

Would I better off in these very hard-surfaced rooms to stick to M3's or M40's or something of that nature? Would the resistors likely solve any brightness problem if I went with M22's or M60's? Two-channel music at moderate listening levels is the main concern.

Thanks for any advice.
