    705's as rear speakers

    I'm considering switching my HT room around (less light interference and my wife is letting me buy new gear as part of switch :T) One thing I am considering is going to 705's as rear speakers. I currently have SCM8's in back on the wall (7' high, slightly in front of listening position). Up front is N804's and HTM1.
    The 705's would be about the same height as the 804's and be very slightly behind the listening position. Also, is this position (on stands at ear level vs on the wall) a better way to set up rear channels. Room is 12' X 15'. Anybody have experience with 705's as rears? Feedback is appreciated.

    by number17
    I finally got my speakers and while I'm still shopping for a used amp (anybody who spots a marantz 5400, denon 2803 / 1804 or Yamaha RX-V1400 at ~ Cdn$500-700 I appreciate if you can let me know!) I have a dilemma with the placement of speakers in my room.

    Wall Brackets for 705s??
    by Aussie Geoff
    Hi,

    I am thinking of installing B&W 705s as my rear surounds. Does any one know of any wall brackets to suit - they don't seem to have obvious mounting holes and I don't want to have to drill into them

    Dipole vs 705s

    First Posting question for all
    I am considering the purchase of a surround sound system including B&W 703s for the main, HTM7 for the center, but I'm not sure about the rear set-up. The store sales consultant recommends the DS7 surround sound speakers. I am leaning toward the 705s....

    601s vs the 705s?
    by BlazeMaster
    Hi, all I currently have the 601s right now for my fronts with the LCR600 and am planning for a eventual upgrade to the 700 series within next 6 months and wanted some ideas. I know it's all going to come down to me listening to them and pick the one I like better. What's the different in sound between...
