Paul, you may have a misimpression as to the power requirements. The Axiom sensitivity spec for the M22 is actually 1dB higher than for the M3(89dB vs 88dB for 1 watt), so the M22 would require slightly less power at a given sound level. Your DRA-345 should be able to handle a peak of about 102dB with the M22s, and certainly isn't "anemic".
