At least a few times a week for me. My wife gets to enjoy them more often since she's home with the kids while I'm at work.

No where as much as I would like. Seeing they are in the living room I can't always just fire them up.

Thanks buddy, can't wait to post some pictures of my organic vegetable garden!! Forty of my seedlings are up, and I'm just waiting for the other 20 pepper plants!! It's my summertime hobby, as I sell my seedlings and vegetables.

Um, hijack alert-any other gardeners out there?

Doc, after I get home classical music is playing on the M22s, either for "serious" listening or background. So, I'd say that amounts to 7-8 hours every day.

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

John, do you ever just have to take a break from classical, or is your love constant?

Virtually every day here, although much of it is for TV watching. At work, I get in at least an hour a day on the Audiobytes, and tomorrow it'll probably be closer to 8. ;\)

Charles, I only mention classical because it represents the overwhelming majority of my listening. Included in "classical" are movie soundtracks which can be considered to fall within the classical genre, e.g., Bernard Herrmann's superb music for Fahrenheit 451 and The Day the Earth Stood Still.

I also enjoy some of the Broadway and Hollywood musicals(e.g., Brigadoon, Showboat). I also listen to music of the Eastern Rites of the Church, partly because I sing in our small(four women, two men)church choir.

What Rick said.

I often am at the computer, and use my Phillips computer speakers.

This weekend however, I had an old friend over and played a couple cd tracks for nostalgia......before I even thought of explaining about Axiom, and the M60s....the first song just started and he said: "That's good sound quality!"

I say: "woo hoo M60s!"

I use them everyday as they are part of my usual TV/HT setup, but they only get to loud levels with music/movies about 6 days a month. I get to listen at lower volumes almost every night when I get home from work for 30-60 min before heading off to bed at ~3:30 AM.

Since I boxed them up to move it’s something like 0 hours a day/week/month…

Before that…

I usually had them on every waking hour I was here and sometimes when I wasn’t here to fool people into thinking I was.

Dedicated listening (as opposed to background) was about 4-5 hours on workdays and 15-18 on days off.

All made possible because mine were in my “living room,” “dining room,” “bed room,” “home theater/music room” and adjacent to an open kitchen.
