Bowers & Wilkins - 4" 100W Satellite Speaker (Each) - Matte Black

I replaced Bose cube speakers with these speakers and they sound great!

I have been looking for some small unobtrusive satellite speakers to be my front highs for quite some time. Finally I found great sounding speakers in a good looking small footprint package that timbre match with my existing speakers costing many times over the M1s. I was totally astounded at how superb these little babies sounded when I replaced the much larger more expensive speakers I had been listening to. They really do mesh well with my Platinum 200s and add so much to the front sound stage that if I did not have in-ceiling back surrounds I would be replacing them as well with the M1s. You really cannot go wrong with this fabulous powerhouse of a speaker whether for your front mains or surrounds. These speakers sound better than speakers costing many times over what these are on sale for!!! Don't hesitate if you are looking for a great speaker in a small form factor that sound like a floor standing speaker at a very reasonable price point!!!

To my hears they better any def-tech bookshelfs and Bose, Energy speakers, i use them for surround backs with my 686 bw's in the front,they give off great soundfield for a small speaker.

I bought 4 of these as my surrounds for my 7.1 setup. I went to Best Buy many times to audition surround speakers. I was originally looking at the B&W 686B's to do the job but they weren't a good wall or ceiling mounting option because of their size, but sounded great. I then listened to some Def Tech ProMonitor 800's but they didn't sound as warm as the 686B's. After a couple of weeks I saw the M1's on display and gave them a listen. They sounded superb and evenly balanced. They could even handle a high volume and still sound great. They come with a wall mount as well as a stand so I was sold. The wall mount feature was important to me so I will elaborate. The mounts took a little fidgeting to get them to fit right, but by the third one I had it down. When they are completed, they look clean and neat. I did not run the wires through my walls. I have the wire going down the wall but it still looks nice because the wires attach inside of the mount instead of the speaker. The speakers can also be angled as much as you need them to be. You can even refit the mount on the back of the speaker to turn the speaker horizontally. These are fine surrounds. They deliver great sound in a small package without that "boxey" sound.

These are great little speakers. I got them for my living room setup where I don't have room for bigger speakers but still want decent sound for our theater and music system. They're perfect for that. I was pleasantly surprised to hear so much bass from these little things.

These speakers are fantastic! I have a smaller room to watch television in. My home theater system works great with these sitting behind my couch. Unless your room is very large, I would just stick with these speakers. Bowers and Wilkins speakers are made exceptionally well.

Originally wanted MIRAGE Omnisats but they were discontinued by mfr. The B&Ws sound better than Klipsch, Def Techs and others I auditioned. Had never heard of this brand before but they sound so good I'll probably upgrade to larger ones (for the front channels in a 5.1 system). But, several friends who have heard my system asked "Why upgrade when these sound so good?"

The colors couldn't have matched my walls better. Aesthetics are perfect. When you crank up the volume the sound is way above my expectations. Do yourself a favor. Spend the money and by the BW complete set. Anything less is just, well... Less.
