B&W 685 theatre VS Monitor audio BX2 Av surround package?

[Soopafly49]

Ant thoughts on which it better. Was oringinally going to get the 685 but know also looking at this.

Hi Soopafly, what size is your room and what other kit do you have?

Hey Grdunn 123 at the moment the denon 2310 sony s370. thanks

tbh, either package would work well but I'd probably sway towards the B&W with the Denon, but I don't think you'd be at all disappointed with the MA's

last sunday when I was purchasing my CA kit, a friend of mine was trying the BR2 and the onkyo 508 receiver, let me just say it was a match made in heaven.

But would it be as good with the Denon which I think is more laid back?

id prefer the bx2 to the 685 despite the amp.
