Thanks again for the feedback all! Appreciate it. I will mainly be using it for movies, so I will likely go center first and then sub.

Depending on room acoustics and how loud you listen, the M5s may give you an enveloping virtual surround effect. In that case, sub first would make sense. Otherwise, QS10s as side surrounds all the way!

Got my M5s earlier this week and got them installed today. I must say, they certainly sound amazing, however, the bass is not as much as I thought it would be so I will likely look to get a sub sooner rather than later. The clarity of sound that comes from them is wonderful.

I only spent about 20 min with them and the receiver, so I haven't updated many of the settings to tune them. I will likely make another post when I have more time with them and adjust the eq on the AV. I am satisfied with the choice i made.

How’s the m5’s going? Tell all! Hope you are enjoying them, no doubt you are.

Still feeling the need for a sub?

Do the OW have less bass then the bookies? They must. The bookshelves cabinet must give more bass than the OW just based on cabinet volume no?

About 10Hz less. I am very satisfied with the bass out of the M5OW and M5.

I guess Mr.Eblack is coming at it from a movie effects perspective. Would be great to hear his opinion on channel.

Thanks for sharing mojo. The OW bass response could be tuned by where on the wall they go, ie: more or less hollow or soft behind them?

Hmmmm...no. I don't think you can tune that way. Room EQ or at least a bass control. I'll tell you though. My Pioneer's bass control couldn't attenuate the prodigious bass enough in my living room. I had to also cut via me Chromecast Audio. I'm talking OW and bookshelf. Even with M2OW, I had to cut some bass. My main room is a different story though. Bass was good there and Audyssey XT32 cleaned it right up.

I gotta try out room correction software. Sounds really cool.

It has to be XT32 or better.
