The M22s are very efficient - you can use them with any receiver or amplifier, including a tube amp.

That is why I didn't pay much attention to the amp power. Should Axiom modify its statement which is quite misleading.

What should I do now?
Thanks Alan.


It isn't misleading. The average speaker efficiency is about 87dB and the M22s are north of 90dB. This means they produce the same sound pressure as an average speaker at half the power fed into the average speaker.
