Hi all, I've been looking at buying my first proper stereo setup for a while now and was wanting recommendations on the bookshelf speakers. I've got £500 or thereabouts to spend and i had in mind B&W CM1's as these would go well with the B&W M1's i have bought to make it into a 5.1 cinema system but the Cm1's have been out for a while and i would hate to think i had bought something and then find out a could have had something better. Any reccomendations are very much appreciated? cheers
Hi gordos3
What amp and source component/s, interconnect/s and speaker cables will you use?
What do you generally listen to?
The size of your room?
Is the room lightly or heavily furnished?
Room positioning of the new speakers (distance to walls, corners, will there be anything between the speakers such as a chimney breast, cabinet, windows etc.)?
Distance between the speakers?
Listening distance?
Will anything be in the way of the speakers?
Will you stand, shelf or wall mount the speakers?
What type of presentation are you looking from the speakers and for system to reproduce?
All the best
