    help about buying b&w system

    i want to buy b&w setup i tought about 804 diamod that sound great but it just too much expensive so i want to get cm9 cmc2 and cm5 back
    but the problem that the finish wenge and gloss i hate and the rosenut doesnt look like 800 series...

    anyone knows if i can order special finish (like cherrywood) to cm series?
    and if the price will be too much expansive that i sould take the 800 series
    thanks

    B&W are unlikely to do a special finish on the CM range. Have you considered getting some used Nautilus 800 series in cherry, which was the most popular finish? I think you'd get much more for your money buying used.

        If your buying used get a Nautilus 803 or better in my opinion the original Nautilus 804 is a horrible floor standing speaker and when I did a back to back comparison with my than new CM9's I preferred the CM9s. The CM9s had more bass and greater detail. The 804S (not nautilus) on the other hand is a much better speaker! When I had Nautilus 804's I "upgraded" to CM9's..

          More finish options on new 800 series
          by fatcat
          How does everyone feel about the finish options of the 800 series? Rosenut is gorgeous but quite difficult to match. Cherry is nice, but if you have dark wood or walnut furniture (as many do), it clashes. Personally, I love the color of walnut and wish the new 800 series came in a walnut veneer....

          Pooling time,

          Which color do you like best for your 800 series? Black, Red Cherry, Cherry or Rosenut.

          Since the new Rosenut color quite different than the old Red Cherry I post this as two different color.

          Older 800 Series - Where are they thread
          by stuofsci02
          Now that the 800 series has moved to the Di series, it is becoming much harder to find the older models. I am sure, like me, many people are still needing certain speakers to complete their setup and aren't interested in the Di series. I have found it difficult to find an HTM3S in rosenut, but someone...

          800 Series - Which Black do you prefer?
          by scanido
          There seems to be a lot of turbulence on the direction B&W has chosen for their new black finish of the new 800 Series. I created this Poll out of curiosity to see which finish is more popular - Black Ash or Piano Black.

          If the results for Black Ash are overwhelmingly positive, maybe...
