B&W-MT60D

[breffni123]

Hey all

Looking for advice please. Please please please help.

I have a small to middle size room. I am not that massively into movies or music.

The things that are important is great picture quality & great sound especially with sports. I don't want speakers taking up all of the room. Four questions:

1) I am thinking for small speakers of the B&W-MT60D. What amplifier would you recommend for this?

2) Are the M1 speakers wireless from the sub?

3) Any idea where to find used B&W MT60D?

4) Are B&W planning an upgrade soon?

I really appreciate your help and giving me the time out. BTW love the magazine!

I don't think I have said anything against Forum rules.

Tks

Might as well get a good soundbar or soundbase instead of the added complexity of speakers and and amp.

I was originally thinking the Sennhieser Ambeo Soundbar. You reckon thats the way to go? Will the sound be as good?

Hi there,

1) Probably a Denon at the moment.

2) The M1 speakers are not attached to the sub, they are attached to the amp by wires.

3) When you buy speakers and a amp from a retailer you can normally get a big discount on package deals and always try to get your cables thrown in too. Here’s a package deal example:

Denon AVRX2700H AV Receiver Bowers & Wilkins MT60D AV Speaker Pack

Denon AVRX2700H AV Receiver and Bowers & Wilkins MT60D AV Speaker package offers a great saving and a fantastic pairing. Speakers available in Black, and White

I personally would go for a ex-display over a used one or phone around for the best deals or pick up deals individually by going for the best prices or package deals like I said that’s what I would do over a used one or ex-display one.

If you budget won’t stretch to the B&W MT60D you can also try the step down package the B&W MT50 which still comes with the M1 speakers just not the PV1D sub a cheaper version.

Denon AVRX2700H AV Receiver Bowers & Wilkins MT50 AV Speaker Pack

Denon AVRX2700H AV Receiver and Bowers & Wilkins MT50 AV Speaker bundle is a fantastics deal, offering style and quality. Speakers available in Black, and White

4) B&W have sold this package for years now, they used to be the B&W MT30 then they changed to the B&W MT60D changing the speakers to make them slightly bigger and the sub slightly better and now comes with a APP.

I personally would go for a speaker and amp package over a soundbar if sound quality is your main concern.

That soundbar does look quality though and I am sure it’s much better than the average one:

Sennheiser AMBEO Soundbar Max

No, they just do the best prices some of the time.

Why would they sponsor it when others just post here while advertising their own company in their signature?
