    Advice on 804 Rear Speakers

    I currently am running a Rotel 1068/RMB1075 combo with B&W 804 (pre S) and HTM2.

    Now that I have choked and paid off my system after 2 years, I am wondering what my next move should be.

    My dealer insists that my rears should be Nautilus 805S.

    I am wondering what I should do. Do I really need to go all out on the rears? Are they going to be timber matched. Also, should I replace my centre channel which has always seemed a little mismatched to the 804's.

    My pre-amp is also plum out of component inputs.

    Any help or advice will be taken under careful consideration.

    Regards,

      I'm not sure about the center channel; you may want to look for a used HTM1. For the rear speakers you could go with the SCM1s. I was in a store the other day and these sounded good. I believe these are the predecessors to the current SCMS speakers.

          Hi all!

          I'm a newbie to this board and can't believe I found this dedicated B&W board!

          Anyway, I have a 10 year old Kenwood HT system passed down to me by
          my father. It cost around $4-5000 10 years ago! Still sounds pretty good,
          but I'm itching so bad...

I'm looking for any helpful advice on what rear speaker set up might give me the best sound for movies with my situation - which is, no rear wall. So, speakers would have to go...
