B&W CM Series Gets a GREAT Review in Home Theater Magazine
Posted in High End Audio, Speakers by KerryThe February issue of Home Theater magazine features a complete B&W CM theater system, including CM9s for the front channels and CM5s for the rears, along with a CMC2 center channel and ASW10CM subwoofer.
To quote Thomas J. Norton:
“Some home theater speaker packages strive for maximum output at the expense of naturalness. Others add a biting edge to everything for excitement that’s not in the program material. They produce boom instead of bass, or they sacrifice natural music reproduction on the altar of overhyped, explosive sound effects.”
“None of these things describe this B&W system. They key word for the CM9 Theatre is balance. It’s not the highest-end system B&W makes — otherwise why would there be the 800 series? But it does offer a balance of strengths on both music and movies, at a price that isn’t outrageous. And it’s a pleasure to live with over the long haul.”
