Paul, you may have a misimpression as to the power requirements. The Axiom sensitivity spec for the M22 is actually 1dB higher than for the M3(89dB vs 88dB for 1 watt), so the M22 would require slightly less power at a given sound level. Your DRA-345 should be able to handle a peak of about 102dB with the M22s, and certainly isn't "anemic".

Enjoy the music, not the equipment.

Thanks everyone (especially JohnK for all the hard figures), this is an amazingly active forum. I think I have enough info to pull the trigger. If I ever decide to get a sub and better amp, I'll have that path open to me with the M22s and like I said, my ears seem to crave the midrange more than the bass.

The midrange on the M22s is outstanding. Let us know how you enjoy those speakers when you get them in. I have enjoyed my M22s for nearly seven years now.

The midrange on anything Axiom is outstanding. I was really impressed by the midrange on my M2s when I did some 2 channel listening with them.
