Got mine back in early May and absolutely love them. I ended up hanging them in my sunroom instead of outside.

Cool...once I get my hands on the wifes CC i'm ordering some in spiced rum!

How do you have them mounted?? I was looking at the ciling brackets...I just wanted to see some mounted like that.

Also what kind of power are you sending them?

I'm using an older HK receiver (55 wpc) with a Squeezebox as my main input source. I have them hanging from the ceiling horizontally.

Does anyone have the outdoor and indoor to do a comparison?

Mark,

I don't have an indoor set of M3's but I had a set of the Algonquins in Almond Bisque that I had to send back...wrong color.

I put them on top of my M60's in my greatroom and used them in place of them for a couple of days and was blown away...I set them to large to see how they would sound just by themselves without the sub. I was very impressed!

Know this was not exactly what you were looking for but as I did not have a set of the M3's previously, I was interested in hearing what these "outdoor" speakers sounded like "indoors".

I could see these also being used in a situation where SO input would like to have the speakers the same color as the walls...these could be painted to match any room and help them more "disappear"...

Waiting for my Cape Cod Grey set to get here...

Sound really great here.

My .02.

Regards,

WhatFurrer

FAQ Link

How do I add an image to my message?

In order to add an image to your message or your signature, you must have the image already available on a web server. This can be an image on your own personal web page, for example. To place an image within a message, simply use the following Markup Tag:

[imag]http://www.url_to_image.com/image_name.gif[/imag]

For example, if you have an image called cateye.gif and its available from your own website at http://www.mywebsite.com/pics, then you would use the following image markup:

[imag]http://www.mywebsite.com/pics/cateye.gif[/imag]


I spelt image wrong so you could see the code or else it tries to add the image I'm referencing.

Hay,

You can get a free image hosting account from http://www.photobucket.com and upload your pictures there.

Then you can use the code in the FAQ (substituting the URL for photobucket and the specific image name) to get the image to appear...

Hope this helps.

Regards,

WhatFurrer
