I agree with the above sentiments, --wondering what the fuss was about when I eventually heard the M3Ti. I want to point out that the M40Ti is quite a sonic departure, considering it is the same speaker, grown down to the floor. The mids are quite well fleshed out, does great bass, but still has too much energy in the higher registers, easily compresses when given some steam, with a somewhat flat and uninspiring overall character. I would say that given all this, the M40Ti is still an outstanding value, and they happen to sound great with inexpensive tube amps, I am using a Cayin TA30 in the back room. I have managed to hold on to a pair for two years, so I must find something to them. I wish there were a stand-out value in a nice, small, coherent two way floorstander. Anyone reading this with some thoughts on the matter, feel free to chime in...
