B&W 602 S3 or 602.5?
« on: Mar 05, 2015 at 04:31 PM »
Hi Guys,

need your expert opinion. which is better between the B&W 602 S3 and 602.5 S3?
If ever I'll be using this as front speakers for my home theater. My center speaker is a B&WHTM62.
Been searching for reviews of the 2 online but haven't found much. What I have been hearing so far is that the 602 sounds better compared to the 602.5. Hope you can give me advise before i purchase.

Thanks

Thanks PDBD.
My center does not belong to the same series.
I'm using B&W HTM62 as my center speaker.

that is what PDBD is trying to tell you sir, he is in favor of 602s3 but, given your center, he suggests you should have the 685, 684 and the likes, so you'll have good synergy on your system. :)
