Welcome! The only speakers I've personally had any experience with are some of the Axiom line, and some Bose 901's back in the 70s.
I've never heard of this happening before. I'd like to know how you like the M3's. They shouldn't have a problem with harshness. But, if they do, it could be the placement and/or the room environment you have them in also. Is your room fairly bare of absorbing material, such as carpet, drapes, furniture, etc?
I wouldn't think that just changing the avr would make that big a difference. Is this a new AVR or used AVR? I'd check the settings. It might be that someone had the trebble turned way up in a menu that's embedded within the AVR, possibly.
