I have the M22TI SE and the EP-175.

My receiver is about 45 watts per channel (Harmon Kardon AVR-120).

What crossover settings do you use?

I would suggest starting with 60 Hz on the EP175 cross over selector. From there a little experimenting in each direction should give you the best setting for your room.

I have the Epic 80 setup, and cross over my M80Ti's at 40 Hz, the VP150 at 60 Hz and the QS8s at 80 Hz. This seems to work well and does not produce any notches that I can hear.

I have a H/K AVR 520, M3's for mains and a VP100. I had the M3's set to "large" 60Hz for a while, since the M3's are rated to 50Hz. I just recently set them to "small" 80Hz and to be honest, I can't really hear a difference. BTW, the rest of the low-end is handled by an A.R. 12" powered sub.
The VP100 I set to "small" as well as my surrounds.
