    In-wall Recommendations Please

    Hi,

    I currently have a Copland CSA28 amp running B&W CDM7SE speakers at the front plus a Denon AVR3300 driving the B&W CC6 centre and Solid 100 rears. I'm planning to get a projector and upgrade the centres and rears with in-walls. I'm not particularly happy with the quality of sound from my current centre so want to see some improvement. I was thinking of the CWM Centre plus CWM800s for rears.

    Any thoughts on whether this would be a good match for the CDM7SEs & amps?

    I was also thinking about upgrading the amps to a Rotel 1095 power amp plus 1068 or 1098 processor but don't think I can really afford this too at the moment. Does anyone have any suggestions for a sensible upgrade approach? One of the key things is that I don't lose the 2 channel quality from the Copland.

    Cheers

    The sound of the new 800 Series center channels is vastly different from the CDM7SE models. I would demo very carefully as I don't see how you would miss the difference. The Rotel upgrade would be awesome but expensive.
    :B It's all about the MUSIC!!!

      Thanks for the feedback DanR. Are there any key areas that the CWM Cinema and CWM800s differ from the CDM7SEs?

        same speakers?

        Seems like maybe you folks are referring to two different series (NOT the same 800's). I could be wrong, but just an observation for what it's worth.

          by DavidB
          5 years after I first fell in love with the 802's I bought these speakers this weekend! Unfortuantely it will be a couple of months before I get to hear them at home because I'm about to have some building work done. The CWM DS8 are in wall switchable monopole and diopole speakers which from what I...

          Thinking of upgrading - 802D? 803D? Keep my CDM7se?
          by karelm
          Hi, I'm a new member and have a few questions. I currently own a pair of B&W CDM7se and want to upgrade to the new nautilaus line.

          At my local B&W dealer, I auditioned the 802D which looks fantastic but I found the sound stiff considering its intimidating price and design. It...

          Looking to upgrade my ceiling ccm80 for HT. Any news on CWM 8180 OR DS8??
          by stewfoo
          I just saw the cwm 8180 and the cwm DS8 in Electronic House Magazine. It is hard to find solid info on these. I am looking at getting rid of my ccm80 for a better surround speaker that must be put in-ceiling. Has anyone tested or heard these models yet? Are they even available? How do these...

          by Steve Ruddy
          This upgrade won't happen until next year and I'm in favor of buying used to maximize my upgrade. I now have CDM7SE fronts. My price range will be 3000-5000 My SSP will be in the $5000 dollar range maybe an Anthem D1 or Flagship Denon used as an SSP. I really would like to make a choice so I can keep...
