My M22's have been on a set of FMS16's since day one. So that's like 6 years now. I am happy with the stands. They look good and do what they're supposed to do. And I know that they were designed to handle the weight of M22's, so I don't worry about over-stressing them.

The only nitpick I can come up with is that about once a year on each stand, I have to re-tighten the main nut that keeps the whole stand solid. They work loose over the changing of the seasons (I have a very dry house in the winter...) and the stands can start to wobble a little bit. It takes all of 5 minutes to do both. If I was smart I'd just dab a little loc-tite on each nut and the problem would likely be permanently solved.

Good luck, and enjoy the M22's. They're great speakers. Quite possibly the greatest bang-for-the-buck of all the speakers Axiom makes.
