This has been very helpful. A great resource, especially for those of us who already bore to death everyone we know when we hyperanalyze our stereos.

I'm am now inclined, despite my protestations in my first entry, to try the M22s. I fear that I'll really miss the bottom end on the M2s. Once you get hooked on this hobby, what's a hundred bucks here or there (and there, and there, and there ... damnit, I tried to be good). I also see a place where I might be able to mount them using brackets on the sides of the built-in shelves, if the brackets are sufficiently adjustable. That would get them away from the echo chamber of the bottom shelves. It also tacks on another $70, but let's just ignore that.
