Does AVS White come after AVS Gray? Am I allowed to use despite my age?

I asked what he thought about the sound - he shrugged and said "really good, why, did you change something?"
May I suggest that we do NOT tell Mark about this. He's got enough problems with his heart as it is.

What did you think about the sound?
Anything (pro or con) jump out at YOU?

I thought they sounded really good. Imaging was excellent, the center panned quite consistently with the mains, and there was not even a HINT of ringing, metallic sound, or any of the other problems the guys on AVS claimed to hear.
One area they also excel in is dynamics ... Blackhawk Down has a LOT of dynamic extremes, and even in a 25x24x9.5 foot room, we had no problem with them keeping up.
For comparison to the RS-1000's, the Big Guys, even at a measurably identical SPL, are more articulate. So no, the $440 M22's don't match the RS-1K's ...
But, for $440 + $385 for the center, they are initially impressive, enough so that I am going to leave them in the system for at least two weeks.

You know, Last August I was going to do a full work over of a pair of M-80's ... THAT could be fun. Especially with the EMOTIVA amp ... For those who read up on amps, one MPS-1 has 336,000 uF of capacitance and 75 amps ... in other words, it will drive anything.
