lhulls, jakewash - thanks for the replies. You are correct, 4 ohm load is not an issue in my setup and it will be a while before anyone wrestles the M22's away from me as I just love those guys. Isn't it funny how subjective sound is? My friend does not care for my Axiom's that much but when I go to his home I am just not that crazy about his rig which he raves about. That's fine, I smile and let him go on about them. That's lthe neat thing though everyone has their taste.

I spoke with the dealer yesterday and I am going to carry my M3s in and take a listen. I know that the 3's and 22's have a different presentation but I am very familiar with the way they sound in the current setup. I would think, err hop :-)that I would be able to tell if the Elite colors the sound when running the M3's.

Will let you know what I find out.
