My first Axiom purchase 5 years ago was M3s and frankly I didn't care for them at all. They sounded un-detailed compared to some Atlantic Tech small bookshelves I was moving to the rear to replace some old dolby era surrounds.

Luckily I used the 30 day return program and got M22s. It made all the difference. Now the SVS sub is the only non Axiom speaker in my setup.

Your right hietpas, it depends on the type of music your listening to, many rave about the m3's over the 22's.

out of curiosity, why has noone mentioned the audiobytes if the primary listening is done via the computer?

My understanding of the original post is that although the speakers might be driven by a computer, the OP was looking for full-range speakers to fill his bedroom.

I haven't heard the Audiobytes, but it seems that they are geared more for nearfield listening..i.e..while sitting at a computer desk.

The Audiobytes are a great speaker but if you want to fill the room with sound and not just the listening area, then you need the bigger speakers.

I have a 10 year old 100 watt per channel Kenwood stereo receiver to push them, I just spend a lot of time on the computer and my main system is in the other room. I will probably get the M22s one of these days.
