Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Stereo M22 w/ sub vs M80 w/o sub for Music and HT

Tim, this might depend on the size of your listening room and how high your listening level would be. The M80 with its multiple drivers could play to louder levels in a large room. If you have a small to medium room and don't listen at extremely high volume the M22s plus a good sub should be excellent. Incidentally, you shouldn't automatically assume that you have to buy stands for the M22s. The basic idea is to have the tweeters pointing at your ear level, whether they're on stands or directly on the floor and tilted back slightly. Experiment.
