Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Stereo What is a good amp for a pair m22’s?

Thanks. I'm still busy as heck, and about to start HP4, so don't get used to seeing much of me.

Hi dakkon
If you are dollar conscious, I recommend you find a nice T-Amp for about $20-30. 10 watts per channel into 8 ohms. Sound quality is excellent. Believe me when I tell you that under normal conditions your M22s are being driven by less than 1/2 watt whatever amp you're using. You can either go through AA batteries or pick up a regulated power supply for another $25-30. Put the $350-400 you save into your Axiom sub fund.

I agree. The diminutive T-amp -- it's about the size of a VHS tape -- is really an amazing bargain.

An Onkyo M-282 or Audiosource Amp Two would fit the bill fine.

Heres the deal, my “real” system is a Marantz sr6300 with a Marantz m9000 5 channel receiver/amp.. with a pari of 60’s, qs8’s, vp150 and ep600.. so the reason for the m22’s was it will represent more accurately the system most people will have.. maybe I will just use my “real” system.. and forgo the whole m22’s idea.. plus m22’s are much smaller.. so I don’t know.. just kind of brain storming at this point at time.


thanks fo the t amp idea though, that is a great one.

Who will you be mixing for -- what's your target audience?

family mainly.. maby co workers. dont know for sure.

I have the Yamaha RX-V657 (600$ CND.) with the M22ti and it's an excellent combo.

For 400$ CND I would go with the Yamaha RX-V457.
