Hello all and thanks in advance for your help. I am going to order my first set of Axiom speakers soon. I have heard nothing but good about them and with the 30 day trial I figure I cant go wrong. I am dead set on running a 7.1 setup and have decided on the Yamaha RX-v2400 as the receiver. I have a Klipsch powered sub that I am currently using and am very happy with so I am going to keep it. My speakers will be used primarily for home theatre and just a little music listening as well. The "bigger is better" in me wants to get a set of M60's as the main speakers, but I am leaning towards the M22ti's instead since I do not really need the extra bass + room size is not very large(budget is also a factor).

The setup I am thinking of running is:
Yamaha RX-V2400 receiver
VP150 center
M22ti fronts
QS4 left + right surrounds
M2 rear centers

Does anyone have any thoughts on this setup? I have been reading about matching "timbre" but not sure what that means.
