    Please help with Surround speakers for 602 S3

    Hello,

    I am in need of help in choosing new surround speakers for my 5.1 HT setup. I currently have 601's as my rears however my better half does not find them very pleasing to the eye on stands behind the seating area. She is also not keen on mounting big black boxes on the walls either.

    I have searched the forum trying to find different pairings with the 602's and have come up with the M1's, and I think DS3 or DS6 can't quite remember (although this won't solve my box on the wall problem, it may be less intrusive).

    In looking for info on B and W inwalls I was not able to find much, but from what I have found, the CWM 650 or CWM 500 looks to be possible considerations.

    I guess my questions are:

    1) Which speaker would provide the best sound/match well with my 602's?
    2) Do I need to stay in the B and W family when looking at surrrounds?
    3) Are inwalls really that bad?

    I would really appreciate any insight the members could provide.

    Thank You

    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...

    Matching center to 602 S3s
    by Jon S
    This is my first time posting here, but after reading so many of threads I'm more comfortable with my choice of 602 S3s to replace a set of Infinity RS9Bs that were 20 years old. After about 20-25 hours these B&Ws are really starting to open up.

    Now I need a center to go with the...

    Will I be Disapointed with 602s on Nakamichi AV8 amp?
    by tannista
    I am strongly considering the purchase of a pair of 602's but I have some concerns that I might be disapointed in how they match up with my venerable Nakamichi AV8 amp. Any thoughts on if I should be considering a new or separate amp for the 602's?

    I do about 50/50 music to movies. ...

    Just bought 802D,HTM2D and CWM DS8!
    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...
