B&W m1 sats with mission m-cube sub?

[keiser1]

hello all, thinking of an upgrade, would anyone have any advice on the above, good idea or bad idea?

If I recall correctly, the cables m the amp connect to your sub, then all speaker cables run out from the subwoofer. The crossover frequency will be set quite high as the M Cubes are NXT speakers, so you'll find that crossover point won't allow other normal speakers to run at their optimum. You would be better off replacing the whole speaker system

I run the m-cube sats from the amp and the sub straight from the amp aswell, i've tried the umbillicle set up as you explained in your post and found no difference in sound, it was then easier to place the sub in a better position as the umbillicle cord is only 1 meter in length. I would want to do the same with the b&w sats and connect them straight to the amp that would then leave the mission sub as a normal sub (hopefully)
