Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Stereo M22's: Impressively neutral

Hi Cooper,

Is the Multi-channel LED (next to the power button) lit up on the front of your RP82 when you are playing DVD's ?? Did you turn off multi-channel in your remocon's menu ?

You already have digital outs on your DVD player. So I feel a receiver with digital inputs is what you should be aiming for.

Good luck.

I dont find the M22's too bright either.. seems just perfect.

Actually I got these speakers because of their neutrality and I now use them in my home studio setup, and I must say they work very nicely.

I have my DVD player setup as "multi-channel," but then I set up my front speakers as large, set rear speakers to none, center to none, and sub to none. I think I did this to get the sub channel to redirect to the mains. I should probably try setting it to 2-channel mode in case it makes a difference.

The multi-channel LED simply refers to the source. When it's playing DD 2.0 (my preference), it's off; when it's playing DD 5.1, it's on.

Digital outputs would allow me to use receiver DACs, if I got a surround receiver, but there is no digital connection for DVD-Audio or SACD. So if I upgrade my DVD player, I can improve DVD-V DACs, as well as DVD-Audio DACs, and maybe have the addition of SACD support.
