Received my Maple M50s today and set them up. They are beautiful. They are big. I only had 5 minutes to listen before I had to go back to work, but first impressions - Stan Getz and Antonio Carlos Jobim, Onkyo 797, Velodyne sub, in stereo mode - Wow! Big, full sound. Nothing's coming out of the sub, but my initial impression is that these M50s blow away the M22s I had in there.

Now I have to tweak the Onkyo, set up the back channels with the Mission 77ds, and watch/listen to a bit of the Matrix.

BTW, the Merak MT66s I have as side speakers are featherweights compared to the M50s. This is a beefy speaker.

M50s are very impressive.
