Wolfy, you're not going to find anybody who can compare all of those speakers that you list and maybe nobody who can compare any of them. All I know is that the M22s I have sound at least as good as any speakers of the type that I've ever heard, including one costing about six times as much.

Wire isn't entitled to any percentage of your total sound budget; spend as little as you can to connect your components transparently. Radio Shack can sometimes be too expensive. Consider sources such as Home Depot, Parts Express and the other ones Jack listed.
