Customer Ratings & Reviews

Really amazing speaker. Paired it with 4 M1 B&W speakers for an amazing surround system.

These speakers bring the sound to life! The rich sound is amazing!

bower and wilkins speakers are great highly recommended

will fill your room up the best sound you will hear

I purchased this speaker based upon customer and CNET reviews, and it has been everything, if not more, than I expected. I cannot imagine anyone being disappointed with it!

This center channel speaker with the Aventage 7.2 will make your ears very happy

The clarity and sound is unbelievable! Hear things I never heard in songs before.

The sound is so good on this speaker, especially when you crank up the volume.

Best sounding speakers I've ever had. They sound way better than my old Bose V30.

I owned the smaller version. I'm very happy I upgraded.

Great sound and looks good. Compliments any system.

Well, I may not be a multi-million-dollar audiophile, but I do consider myself, still, an audiophile. I've had this speaker for about 5 days now, and I must say, this thing is the full package. The separation, clarity, punch, and imaging of this speaker are all just so crisp and impressive to the air. I am coming from the Definitive Technology C/L/R 2000 - which, although impressive - I was ready to move to the living room and, therefore, I was looking for an upgrade for my media room. With that said - I can give a quick comparison between the two. This BnW wins in EVERY respect, even matched with Definitive Technology speakers as the Left and Right channels. The bass from the CLR can obviously be much deeper and boomier considering that it is powered... But when tuned properly - to match your other speakers - you find that sweet spot for its bass output, and, once found, you'll realize it's almost never near max settings. With that said - the BnW has much more impact and presence at most volumes. It's likely due to its 6 1/2 inch drivers - but it doesn't stop there. The bass' roll off and crispness just seems so much more upscale and "correct." The three way design gives such amazing separation. The crossovers are done perfectly. As a center, this product brings everything together so magically that I was quite shocked at first considering I'd thought I was using an amazing center, already. I can't stress it, enough. Everything seems sharpened and refined after this purchase. I will say, though, that yes, it is very bulky. I am currently using an entertainment center that allows me to mount my 55" to the vertical brace attached to it - with a sheld roughly 8-9 inches underneath the bottom of the TV. The center channel doesn't fit! I have to put the speaker in front of the TV rather than having it niched inbetween the two. But, only an inconvenience. They are 6 1/2 inch drivers coupled to a midrange driver, after all. With all that has been said - in summary, I can't wait for the break in period to be over and to be able to finally fully appreciate the abilities of this product. I will soon be matching a pair of BnW ceiling speakers as my second pair of fronts. May sound awkward, but I'll have 2 floor standing speakers from DefTech matched to the center, and ceiling speakers - with rears, as well. But let me tell you - I know BnW is my choice for the ceiling. Should sound stellar in stereo for music and give an amazing opened, realistic setting for games/movies. Can't Wait!! Thanks for the read!

One of the best centers i have had for this price point. warning - this things size is monstrous so be cognizant of this in your set up

I first purchased the HTM62. I was impressed very much until the tweeter went bad. Best Buy replaced it. Again the tweeter went bad, so Kyle at the West Bloomfield store suggested that I up grade to the HTM61. WOW, what a difference. I.also own a pair of Bowers & Wilkins tower(column) speaker from Best Buy.. So far I Absolutely LOVE IT!!! Thanks Kyle @ Best Buy

Excellent center channel. Cost is too high but it's a really good speaker

I upgraded from the smaller HTM62 S2. While HTM62 sounds good, I always felt like it was muddy, almost like a veil was laying in front of the speaker. The HTM61 S2 is a pretty significant upgrade. Everything is clear and precise, very accurate. I highly recommend this center channel no mater which 600 series B&W speakers you pair it with.
