In reply to:

I still contend that M22s are way overkill for a pair of surround channels that are barely used.


I agree, but then most if not all of my speakers are overkill. Click on my home page link for more details. What's more, I prefer the side and rear surrounds at 2-3 dB over reference, which makes them a little more useful IMHO. I realize that many will tell me that 2-3dB over ref. is too much gain, but hey . . . I like it!
