Which sub would match the M22's?

Do you want to stay with Axiom for the sub? If not there are a lot of great subs to choose from. Any good sub will blend well with the M22s.

I've heard good results with both an SVS PB12 and an EP500 with M22s.

Hi,

Sorry, got busy with other stuff and I just got back to this thread.
Oh, by the way, the "v3" with the M80s WAS a typo!

The M22s only need a couple of inches behind the port. Given the new room size, I think you'd find them really excellent with either the EP350 v3 or the EP500 subwoofer.

One of the virtues of using smaller speakers like the M22s for mains is that they're easier to set up in more confined spaces to get a really excellent stereo soundstage than are the M80s.

Arcam amplifiers are fine and they will drive 4-ohm loads if you decide you'd prefer the M80s.

Regards,
Alan

I have tried Axioms EP350v2 and v3, EP400 and EP600, SVS PB12-nsd, my current PB13 Ultra and my old under powered D-box 10" sub with my M22s and they all have blended very well, most subs are easy to blend with speakers, the PB12 - nsd was the only one that I felt was a little overpowering but that was due to the subs FR and nothing to do with the M22s.

Almost forgot, the Paradigm DSP3100 was another incredible little sub for the money and worked very well with the M22s and even my M80s.
