Hey, thanks for the response, John.

BTW, the fact of not having hooked up the surrounds yet had a nice side effect - I have been experimenting all weekend with 2 channel music using just the M22s and the subwoofer.

Boy.... those fronts can SING! They are just amazing. The staging, the clarity, the separation. I was listening to some orchestral music (specifically a beautifully recorded set of Rossini's overtures) -- how about being able to pinpoint the exact location of the TRIANGLE in the middle of a full-orchestra "fortissimo"? Amazing.

Kudos, Axiom. You made my day today, that's for sure.
