Bowers & Wilkins - CM10 S2 Triple 6-1/2" 3-Way Floorstanding Speaker (Each) - Rosenut

These are the best speakers from sports to action movies, well worth the money if you can afford it.

I love the looks, the sound quality. I'm really happy to have invested $$. Worth EVERY DOLLAR

My 1st setup was a bose. I’ve played around with a few other set ups and I really like my cm10s so far. Have had them for a almost a month. I have to have an woofer for my taste though plus given size of my room.

I couldn't ask for more. I bought 2 of these floor standing speakers and I am enjoying them to the max.

I am heavy on music than movies. Having owned a Polk for over a decade, wanted a significant upgrade. After hours of auditioning an number of speakers and reading numerous reviews was unable to select between Martin Logan and B&Ws. I liked the style and sound of both. During a visit to BestBuy, spotted a open-box CM 10 S2 on a good deal and so thought of giving it a try. I loved them so much I returned them and ordered brand new. The speakers are very sensitive and the acoustics of the room affects the quality of sound a lot. These speakers need a big room and a powerful amplifier. I was blown away in a showroom paired with Peachtree audio nova220se. Tried it at home and didnt work for me. My room is small and truly these speakers are a overkill. Registered the product online reported the issue and asked for suggestions and B&W quicky responded saying either I would have to fix the acoustics of the room or get a amplifier with room correction. They also recommended Bi-amping the speakers. Paired with Marantz SR5010 and after bi-amping and running Audyssay its sonic heaven. I do run it at almost full volume and is just enough for my 15 X 18 room. You would need a bigger amp for larger rooms.

Let me start by saying that I have a pretty nice home theater setup with a 7.1 speaker setup from Definitive. Started having issues with one of the mains and realized I would have to replace them both. I knew I wanted something better and 'auditioned' may different makes and models. None had the sonic purity of the CM-10s. I have heard more and new subtle vocal notes, sounds and instruments in music tracks that I have listened to for decades. I hear every intake of breathe and slide of a finger along a guitar string. It is just magical. My wife who normally doesn't care much about quality (music is music) was so taken with how much better everything sounded, that she actually said buying these was a GOOD IDEA. Once I got them set up and balanced, we listened to them for five hours straight. That has never happened with any home theater related purchase! Do not hesitate to buy these. They are flat out AWESOME!

I spent some time listening to all the speakers below and up to the price range of the B&W CM10 S2. I had originally been considering Martin Logan's Motion 60XT but was impressed with the detail of sound that B&W's CM S2 line had over everything else in the sub-$2,000 price range, including Martin Logan. Above the impressive sound, the quality and beauty of the cabinetry/construction is second to none. If you budget affords this level of cost , then I highly recommend you give the B&W CM line a consideration. I orginally compared and was going with the CM8 or 9 S2, but the CM10's separate tweeter design was a significant upgrade borrowing from their reference Diamond series. I would go so far as to say that you will not be disappinted. I also recommend pairing them with a CM Centre S2 center channel speaker to go with these if you plan on using them for home theater.

I tried three different speakers before the CM10's. I finally found what I was looking for. These are great. A little pricey but well worth it.
