I have recently remodeled my family room and had built in wall cabinets made to accomadate my TV and audio equipment. We enjoy watching movies and listening to music so much in this room that we want to upgrade the entire system. Having built in cabinets also limits me in choice of speakers, I have just 9 1/2 inches in height for the center channel.
I have auditioned the B & W 600S3, 705, and the 805s. I really loved the 805s and haven't totally ruled them out but the 705 is more in my budget. Either way the matching centers in the 800 and 700 series are too tall for my space. The salesman recomended that I could use the LCR 600 S 3 center because it would fit the space and be as close to the drivers in the 805 and the 705.
Having read many of the posts in this forum, alot of you have some very informative input when it comes to B&W and would appreciate any feed back on my delema. I would just hate to invest so much and then compromise an important component as the center channel.
I have also listened to Totem speakers which would fit into my space and would be a consideration if I had to compromise the performance of the B&Ws by mixing and matching the front and centers. Thanks for your input.
