I've never heard the M1's with the matching sub. I did own a full set of M1's before, and had them matched with a Velodyne sub. Fantastic little speakers. However, I think the CM set would be miles ahead of the MT60D package. When I had the M1's, I also had a full 805 series set, and a pair of B&W 601 S3's. I had compared the M1, 601, and 805. Though the M1's were very impressive for their size, they were not better than the 601. The CM is a line above the 600 series, so I would safely assume that the CM package would sound much better compared to the MT60D. Then again, the MT60D is a very clean, simple, and elegant package.
I currently have a pair of 804S. I did go from a full 5.1 to 2.0 setup. When I move, I do want a 5.1 setup again, but I don't think I would give up a pair of 804's for the MT60D package. I thought about either buying the matching center and having in-walls for the rears, or adding a MT60D to use with movies, and keep the 804's for music. Hope this helps.B&W 804S/Velodyne SPL-1000R/Anthem MRX720 -
I would think about getting CM9 instead of CM8 but CM1 instead of CM5. The CM5 is a bit overkill for surrounds IMO. Are you also going to be using a sub?Music: Intel NUC -> Antelope Zodiac Platinum -> Classe CA-2300 -> B&W 802 Diamonds & 2x SVS SB13UComment

i thinking about PV1D
I don't want to waste so much money , I will rephrase the question
what would be better
CM1 front and back, and CM CENTER for center and PV1D (maybe a can stretch myself for cm8 front)
or the MT60D package .
don't forget I had 804di front and HTM4D .. it was too much for movies if music is not so important.Comment

I would think about at least CM5 for fronts, but the CM series should still sound better than the MT 60Music: Intel NUC -> Antelope Zodiac Platinum -> Classe CA-2300 -> B&W 802 Diamonds & 2x SVS SB13UComment

How about a mix ...
CM5 (£800) or CM8 (£1250) front with CMC (£450); then use M1 (£300) for rearsComment

Hello, I have my eyes set on a pair of 601 S3 which I can only buy in the US. Taking advantage of a trip I plan to bring them back to Mexico by plane if possible. I don't want to get my hopes up because if the package size of the speakers is too big I won't be able to bring them properly secured,... -

Hi, new here.
I'm thinking of getting the CM5's and instead of getting the CMC i want to get the CMC2 since it's a much better center. Will it blend well with the CM5's?
I could just get the CM9's but i don't want to spend that much on speakers yet. And i don't think...27 February 2014, 11:57 Thursday -
I am currently using the XPA5 with my CM8. I normally watches movie most of the time almost no music listening. Recently I had started to listen to some music and I was told that lexicon lx5 power amp will sound better for music listening with CM8. Just want to get some general comment about this. The... -
Hello,
as a long-time fan of B&W I have enjoyed my 68x-series theatre (fronts: 685, center: htm62, rear: 686 with a BK XXLS400 sub on a Marantz SR5003) for many years now. However, recently I have upgraded my job and now it's time for the speakers to follow suit. I absolutely love...
