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.

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!

Beautiful Look & Sound

I am not aware of any other speaker that looks as good as the CM-10. I had been shopping for months and I was ready to buy the CM-9. I walked into Best Buy and saw this speaker and heard this speaker and I knew that this was what I was looking for. Watched Gravity the other evening and it sounded outstanding. I am a big music buff (all genres) and the sound from the CM-10 is just so clear. A great test for any speaker is to test the lower volume as well as the upper volume. This speaker passes the test with flying colors. If you can afford this luxury, I would highly recommend it.

These are fantastic speakers. I mostly use them for playing my huge vinyl collection and it is amazing how much of the music I have been missing with my older setup. I used to have a 20 year old set of Boston Acustics with a Harmon Kardon receiver. They sounded great with the Dual turntable, everyone that heard it couldn't believe how good it sounded, especially for equipment that was 20 years old. Well the Dual finally broke and I replaced it with a Denon as I really wanted an automatic table. I updated the cartridge to an Ortofon red and was very happy. Two months later the receiver lost a channel and I replaced it with the Marantz SR 7011. I then realized the speakers were not keeping up and once I heard these, it was done. I cannot believe how much more sound and instruments have come alive on the same old vinyl records I have, some from the 80's. Listen to these, they will blow you away.

Crystal Clear Clarity

I listened to several speaker brand demos here at Magnolia Design Center and at other high end audio stores before deciding on the B&W CM10 S2's. The 1" free-mounted decoupled double dome aluminum tweeter easily caught my listening pleasure almost immediately because of its crystal clear clarity sound reproduction. The tweeter location on top and separate rather than within the speaker cabinet made an immense difference in clarity due to its wider sound dispersion capability. In addition, the 6-1/2" midrange driver sounded absolutely precise and articulate as if you were present in a live sound recording performance. Finally, the triple woofer configuration really brought out the earth shaking lows for precise bass reproduction in music and movies. You cannot go wrong with the B&W CM10 S2 series tower speakers at this price point and I highly recommend them without reservation.

The CM-10 speakers are nothing short of amazing. The clarity, sound of each instrument, and oh the bass is wonderful in conjunction with the sub woofer. If you have a medium to high end receiver, Have a medium Okyno receiver pushing 190 per channel and wow what a difference. YOU get what you pay for. These speakers blow away anything you will hear so if you can do it get it done. This is recording studio sound, not surround sound. Comparing these speakers in a home system is like comparing a DVD to a VCR. No comparison. Worth every penny

These speakers are great was going to get cm9 s2 thank god I didn't love the extra bass woofer on the cm10 s2 for that extra bass. The bass is nice and tight. If you want crazy bass these are not the speaker for you the bass is just wright .The the highs on this
speaker are crystal clear you can hear a pin drop. All around great speaker. If you get the black ones be prepared to do a lot of dusting.

Sonic Heaven

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.

This speaker is what the CM 9 should have been. Same sound details more base and it is more balanced. Make sure your amplifier has enough power to move it.

No other speaker comes close to this. It's expensive so really had to think about it but once it's installed it is outstanding. The most clear and crisp sound I've heard in my life.

Sad to see these Bowers and Wilkins discontinued because they are absolutely perfect the way they are. I know the new models are an upgrade, but this tower speaker is beyond perfect. I’ve been waiting for years to finally be in a position to pick a set of these up. Love the quality and clarity in sound this puts out!

I have a special use for high end speakers. They are used on a theater organ for additional Digitally sampled sound. I needed an almost exact reproduction and got it from these speakers.

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 have had Advent Speakers, and had Bose 901's for over 36 years, and then I purchased these Bowers and Wilkins CM 10 S2's. The clarity of these speakers is amazing. Hearing the drum strokes and the guitar chords being played, and the vocals are as the singer is standing in front of you! These speakers blow away the competition!!
