B&w Cm1

[PAOGORMAN2001]

I would like to get some comments or opinions on the CM1 speaker. I have read some "press" on them but would like to hear from owners who are using them for two channel music. Right now I am using 602s3's with a NAD C352

Thank

Dont know about the cm-1, but saw a pair of cdm-1 nts on E-BAY
Bidding started at 350 and ended at over 900, for speakers that cost 1200 new.

I've also got a set a 602s3's...I was swinging towards the cm1s but couldn't afford them with my amp. They're an excellent speaker but lack the ability to go as loud as the 602s can if you have a larger room.

I am currently using CDM 1SE's for two channel audio, not quite in the same ball park as the CM1's but I believe very similar in many respects.
I have only used them on Denon amps, bi-wired, and these things are fast and tight.
Unbelievable sound for such a small speaker in small to mid sized rooms.
The CDM 1's are the best single investment I have ever made for enhancing my music listening.
Hope this helps somewhat.
Regards,
Dave.

I've listened to them and they are OK. Fairly clear, maybe a bit bright. They seemed lean on the mid and lower end and lacked a bit in dynamics.

I would certainly audition other things before choosing anything, there are many good competitors to the CM1.
