For those looking for reviews and info on the 685's I thought I might post a very short review.
I had a very short listen to the B&W 685's at a shop today(about 2 songs) and was impressed.
They sounded rather larger than their actual size, clear and dynamic.
They were being powered by a Marantz 5002 receiver and it seemed to be able to power the speakers well enough to a reasonable volume level.
Cannot say much more until I get another listen with a cd I am familiar with and get them alongside some other brand bookshelves to compare,but my first impressions were very positive.
In the short listen I had, they have definitely got me interested, they did seem to have something special.
Anyone else had a listen ?
Pete
