    Any thoughts on the CDM C Special Edition?

    I know this is an older speaker, but a guy with a new family cant justify most of the great systems you guys have out there!

    One step at a time I guess.

    So.... any thoughts, experiences? I'm currently running:

    B&W P6's
    B&W DM303' s (rear) w/ matching LCR3 Center Channel.
    Rotel RSP 1066
    Rotel RMB 1075

    Let me know if $280 is a good price, or if its even worth looking at!

    Thanks!
    B&W 704's
    B&W HTM7
    B&W DS7's (rears)
    B&W 850 Subwoofer
    Rotel RSP 1066
    Rotel RMB 1075
    Rotel RDV-1060

    97disco,

    I used to have the CDM C SE center channel. I also had it matched with P5's, very similar to your P6's. Even though they were not the same series, they matched up pretty well. The bigger volume will improve bass compared to the LCR3. The exposed tweeter also improves the high end clarity.

    I would definitely grab that center channel at $280, especially if the wood color matches.


    Hope this helps.

      Steve,

      Thanks for your input!

      Actually it doesn't match (black). I was looking at it to see if it offered "improvement" over my current setup, and was motivated by the price.

        Anyone mixing CDM NT series with 700 series?
        by Blindamood
        I'm currently running a 5.1 setup with the following: CDM 9NTs in front, CDM CNT center, and CDM 1NTs in the rear. I'm considering moving the 9NTs to another room (where I have a 2-channel system), and looking for ideas to replace them in the 5.1 setup.

        Obviouusly, the CDM NT series...

        CDM 1SE - To Bi-wire or Not?
        by emdeevee
        I have a set of CDM SE speakers which I'm going to power with a B&K AVR507. The CDM 7SEs and the CDM CSE will be bi-wired with Audioquest Type 6 wire, but due to real world issues, I cannot run 35 feet (under carpet) of Type 6 wire to my rear CDM 1SEs -- at least not if I want to stay married....

        New CDM-1nt speakers... What now?
        by Aven
        I did it… I’ve gotten my first set of B&W’s! For my first set I got a demo’d pair of cdm-1nt’s for fronts and an asw300 subwoofer to give a little more bottom…

        Currently, I’m running them with my old amp and player… A Sony home theater receiver and a Sony DVD player…...
