I've exhausted my powers of persuasion in the speaker collection dept. and anything less than an absolute steal is hard to swing.

Drew, the amp would be connected to the center channel pre-out. If budget is a concern, I was tempted to go with the M22's horizontally, tweeters out alignment, wired in parralel ( wiring one speaker to the other -/- and +/+ then to receiver) as mentioned earlier, but I quite enjoy them as mains in the bedroom.
