Very good chance, you should have called them first.

You should still call!

Let's not forget ctown's unfortunate FO order. It appears there are some not so nice outlet pieces making their way out, although his is the only really noticeable defects I have heard of.

I like these speakers and it would be cool if I could figure out how to integrate them into my existing system. Maybe as a second set of surround speakers with a switch to go between the m22's and QS8's. I don't know if that is a good or bad idea or if I am just crazy. Another idea is as presence speakers. Ju7st thinking out loud here
On another note the m60's in black showed a 6 week waiting period. Is this pretty much how long it usually takes or are they just allowing a good amount of buffer?

Scot, if you don't want to set up the M22s in a bedroom or elsewhere, why not simply use them as back surrounds? No switching is necessary.

unfortunately my viewing position (couch) is against a wall so back surrounds is not likely to work. How about presence speakers? Do they make a nice contribution to the sound? Setting up a second room with the m22's and a sub might make a nice alternative system. I do have an extra receiver and sub. matter of fact that sounds very doable

Presence speakers can add a lot or a little to a setup.

They mostly add to larger setups because it creates a more enveloping surround experience for bigger rooms.

It might be fun to play with them. The thing is since many DVD's don't have 7.1 coded into them sometimes the surround speakers are all sent the same thing...or sometimes little to nothing. It all depends on what your receiver decides to do. I know Yamaha has some great sound field programs built into it.

Hey, you don't know unless you try.

Just curious Ohmen, why are you replacing the M22's with the M60's? My decision went back and forth before I decided on the 60's.

BTW, my FO 60's were perfect.
