So last night I picked up a Denon AVR 1712 for 250 bucks. Last one in the store, and they wanted it gone.

Next question: I am now thinking about getting a pair of Axiom bookshelf speakers as part of my home theater upgrade. I was thinking of either getting a pair of M22 or M3 speakers. I have a very small area to fill. I sit about 10 feet back from a 46 inch TV, the room is about 10 feet wide, and the ceiling is lower than the standard height (basement).

Although I would like a pair of M22s, I think they may be a bit much for such a small space.

Thoughts?

Thanks, really helpful forum.

as long as you have enough space for your speakers, they will not be "too much".
have a look at my room-my equipment - link in my sig. - it's about 9 x 9 x 16 ft
and the speakers i have are not too much.

Follow up to my last post...

i'm not decided yet, but there are good chances that i will buy
another subwoofer in the next few months, not to replace this one, but as an addition.

would that be too much for my room?
of course not - everyone will tell you for sure. ;-)

Too much? What does he mean by that?

I'm surprised someone didn't suggest a pair of M80s for your fronts.

by "a pair of M80s", do you suggest i should stack them up 2 + 2 ?
if so, i would put the top ones upside down.

i'm real brilliant! ;-)

I've had M3's and M50's and now have M22's. Do yourself a favor, get the M22's.

I'm using my M80s for height speakers, now that I have the LFRs. I think it sounds amazing watching BD movies and my room is only 14'wide, 20'long and 8'high.
