I've only listened to my M2s two channel once at my brother's. We listened to some Bob Marley and a couple of african performers he is really into.
They seemed fine to me except an understandable lack of bass compared to what I am used to with the 80s.
The bright reputation is a myth spread by people who have not listened to the speakers.
Its funny, but a couple of the speakers a few people at audioholics really like and recommend were recently reviewed there and described as bright.
Now, none of the folks that recommend either speaker ever describes them as bright yet some of those same peaple slam anything axiom as being bright. Go figure.
