    You know how you listen to speakers in the store and hope that when you get home you get the same quality. Not taking into account that you are in a sound proof room with the right amp etc... The B&W CM8 S2's have more than exceeded that expectation. I purchased them to replace my rear channel speakers and they have turned my family room into a concert hall. Simply put they are acoustic masterpieces, thank you B&W for enhancing my home theater experience. I now have my eyes on the B&W CM10 S2 to replace the two front channel speakers.

    Overall the Bowers & Wilkins CM series is second to none in the sub-$2000 price range. For me, I listened to B&W, Martin Logan, Polk and others at Best Buy. Each CM model sounded better with notably more detail than the competition. The cabinet/construction is also outstanding. The design is beautiful, especially with the screens removed. The only real competition might be other CM models - the CM9 S2 and CM10 S2. If your budget can afford it, listen to all three models, The amount of bass and clarity increase as you go up the range. Overall though, most setups do not need more than the CM8.

    I got the best speakers I could afford and couldn't be happier. Makes my basic 100 watt 2 channel system sound amazing. Added a sub and I'm good. Excellent build quality and great at all volumes.

    Perfect sound, Nice finish. Half price because of 700 series I don't see any difference with 700. If you can find it, Just get it.

    Wanted CM10's but couldn't justify the cost. Especially since I got these as demo speakers at a discounted price. Would recommend a good sub for all listening since it can do low frequencies but not well and they are not really design to like the CM10's. But they are very clear and concise for the price so don't be afraid of these. Also had to order the floor stands, they did not come with them as demo's is what I was told??

    Hooked up to a new Marantz sr7011 and sound is amazing . Also have with B&W center as well. IMO, media room sounds like a Magnolia demo room and better than theater. Very happy so far with bass and clarity from TowerS. Found a deal in sugarland store for reduced pricing as it was an older model. Still sounds great as it was broken in and abused in the demo room.

    I'm a home person who loves music. I couldn't have made a better purchase for my present to myself. The speakers are awesome. Also, I might add, the sales people were extremely helpful and knowledgable AND the person from the Geek Squad was extremely knowledgable, kind, patient, clean and just a darned nice person. He was a Mother's dream.

    These are by far the best speakers that I've owned. The clarity of the sound at high volumes are absolutely phenomenal. I purchased these to listen to music but when watching movies with surround sound they are also second to none.
