JohnK,

Thank you very much for your reply!

I went with the M3's mostly due to space considerations (no room for floor standers) and that I wanted the same model of speaker making up my LCR channels. The M22's would have worked, but from what I've read, the M3's will provide me more of the mid-bass boost that I'm looking for until I can get the sub. The other consideration was that the center channel speaker may have to be placed on its side if it doesn't pass the WA test. I was led to believe that the M3 was forgiving in that respect.

Don't get me wrong though, the modest price of the M3's is great!! It always makes me smile when I can get the most out of my hard earned dollar! Hopefully they will sound as good as everyone says.

I'll take a look at the Hsu as well.

Aloha!

Brian
