Customer Ratings & Reviews

Clear crisp center added to my speakers and now I can actually hear the center voices and talking in movies. Excited for this new addition, great value for the quality. Looking forward to purchasing the sub and the back speakers next time.

Purchased this badboy open box for $300 and I’m loving it. Great sound and amazing quality. Major upgrade from my Bose system

I bought this B&W htm6 center channel to replace my outdated Klipsch (around 15 years old) , when I got this speaker home got it plugged in, I was blown away by the difference in clarity, bass, and just the overall sound quality of the B&W, the speaker itself looks pretty nice also, not real fancy or anything but I would say modern, classy maybe, but its easy to look at, the only bad thing was that it made my front bookshelfs (Polk) sound like crap, so I ended replacing those with the B&W 606 bookshelf speakers, WOW the 606s sound really good, but that's for another review, so some people say to get the same brand fronts and center so the timbre would match, not a must, but it does sound pretty good together, btw I am running a sub with these speakers, I just think everything sounds better with a powered sub woofer, now listening to music, watching movies or music videos or concerts on Tidal or blue-ray just sound so dang good, love love the B&W htm6.

Came from a Polk S35 center and this is obviously a night and day difference. The dialogue was so much more clear and crisp. The low end is beyond impressive for what I thought a center could accomplish. I tried this out for a week and then went for the B&W HTM72. That was a step up from the HTM6 which I really wasn’t thinking was possible. If you are in doubt with the HTM6 I firmly believe that no one would be disappointed. I mean unless you’re one of the snobs that say B&W are harsh, bright and overpriced but also have not heard or owned them. If you’re not that person, you will be in love.

Great center speaker without breaking the bank. Stopped in the local BB and listened to all the center speakers they had to offer. I was dead set on a Martin Logan 799 prior to getting there. I listened to the speaker in thought I was going to get then checked out this B&W. There is 0 comparison, the B&W was much better then the ML and also cheaper. This speaker does everything you want your center channel to do at a good price. I entertained the idea of the upgrade B&W but was thrilled with this so I kept a few $ in my pocket.

WOW...simply superb.. I bought Bowers Wilkins towers and center channel and bookshelf to set up my 5 speakers as part of my 5.1 We all know center channel is important, as it has to work all the time....voice and inbuild 2 woofers are simply amazing

B&W HTM6 Speaker great sound. Love the sound but the speaker is deeper than my fireplace can support. So will have to figure out an alternate. It’s great to listen to all high and low sounds that we’re not audible on my previous Bose home theater system which was 10 years old.

I was convinced to replace my center speaker as it is most import in my surround sound system. This did the trick. Very clear and powerful without taking up much room.

center channel speaker works great, good quality, sound and works well w theater for dialog, connected to receiver easily

Had recently purchased a Pioneer Elite AV Receiver and have always wanted B&W speakers for its clarity since I listen to all types of music. This entry level B&W bookshelf speaker paired with the tower speakers does not disappoint. I was able to clearly differentiate the highs, mids and lows. The lows isn't as low as I would hope but its nothing that a separate subwoofer can't pick up. Definitely happy with this purchase.

Using in my 7.1 home theater system along with the matching 600 series front, rear and sub. I’m very pleased with this speaker! It’s the most important speaker in your home theater setup and it won’t disappoint. Build quality is typical B&W. It’s beautiful with or without the mesh magnetic covers. I’ve had other center channel speakers but none have come close to the clarity of this one. The difference was notable immediately.

The Bowers & Wilkins line of speakers are amazing but this center channel speaker is the crown jewel of a 5.1 systems set up. It adds clarity for dialogue, additional depth of sound as well as enhances the bass and output of the tower and subwoofer speakers. Do not set up a high end system without owning this piece.

I knew that the center channel was important but wow! what an improvement over my Polk system. My Polk TL 1600 was fantastic! Best 5.1 system for the money by a long shot. The entire Polk system was only 499. Happily used it for years. Now I have been doing some B&W upgrades. Moving the Polks to my Parlor.

Another great product from Bowers & Wilkins, great for movies and music, it’s a totally different experience when you hear something with this center speaker, you will get every single detail out of this product.

I bought this center speaker to match my 802 matrix 3 speakers and I am very pleased with the sound and clarity of this speaker it matched the tonal quality of the 802'S. I would recommend this speaker to anyone that likes the great sound of B&W speakers.

This speaker has a clear, crisp sound and a quick response to source inputs. The sound separation is so good you can almost distinguish between the two horns inside the cabinet. The instruction manual is an exercise in reading microfiche, but easily understood. We got Bowers and Wilkins subwoofer to go along with the other B&W speaker components.

This is an excellent speaker. Because it is not matched with other 600 speakers in the theater set up (which would be ideal), it took a bit of level adjusting so it didn't overpower the other smaller B&W speakers in the room. Bowers and Wilkins is the best in my humble opinion.

B&W Continues to make excellent speakers and this model is one of them. I am matching this to a pair of 802 because I need a center channel that was hidden inside of my cabinet But also wanted to stay in the same family. Glad I did.

One of our main goals was to achieve better sound than our previous system. Dialogue is much more clear--not muffled or too soft during conversations in some of our favorite series.

I had the basic speaker for my front center one and it was hard to hear voices. I decided to upgrade and I could not be happier! The sound is amazing and I feel it doesn't have to be as loud to hear it.
