I've only heard the M22ti. I've never done any side-to-side comparisons with the M22s. I absolutely did not like the M22ti. It sounded wayyyyyy too thin. I also didn't like how it imaged but that may be due to it being a ti. The Axiom FOCs have evolved.
I don't know if you can see my signature but I have almost every v4 speaker Axiom has produced including the M50. In my living room, the best-sounding speakers are the M2s. I love them and I love the music they make. That includes the bookshelves and the on-walls; I have them both.
Yo anyone sittin 12 feet away, all dey need fo' audio/video up front iz M2s an' uh sub or two dependin on preference. don' even need uh center unless da off-axis folk is picky. fo' rap dat don' dig down too deep, one can enjoy M2s without uh sub until one scrounges enough scratch ta pony up fo' uh pimp-tight woofbox sho 'nuff!
