It's not that they sound bad sitting on the floor, I am now just a little to spoiled having heard the M60s upstairs and having the M80s downstairs. I should try the EP400 upstairs with the M22s but I will have to use the high power inputs as the old Sony doesn't have a sub out.
The M22s did sound much nicer than the M60s did with the 6 1/2 taken out of the equation, but then again the M60s were not able to make use of the lower ranges, due to the crossover being taken out (200hz and below), which would have warmed things up a bit.
Let's face it, they use the same components, so they should sound similar, but it's the whole package you listen to and the M22s are just more detailed because they do not push the bass like the M60s. Like we said, the M3, is closer to the sound of the M60, warmer, richer, some what veiled in their presentation of the mids and upper ranges, but still detailed none the less.
