May be I did not read all post good enough, but here is wnat happened to me when I bought M60s ( sorry, no 22 exprerience ).

I set them side by side with Piradigm Monitor 7v3,
moved from the wall same distance, TOED IN almost pointing to sweet spot an the very top of my left ear (my SOH suffered from that test ),
and I thought that
M60 DO NOT esxtend beyond outer sides of boxes.

Then, I set M60s almost in parralel with the wall and moved them further AWAY from the wall, like 20".

AND I fell in love...
With only stereo setup it sounds better then surround system
in the living room, even in my so far away from acoustic perfection basement, it fills all of it and goes far beyond, well , speakers dissapired - so how would I know "how further" off speakers it goes.
Point is, 1. room, 2. position
I did even more - I brought M60 ( crazy guy I am )
into dealer's listening room, and, you might not like that - but I did NOT like the sound of M60s in there - I think all the speakers around colored and boomied sound.

So, again 1 ROOM, 2 POSITION
Then again, it used to be a free country - I'm just stating MY opinion :-)
