The 684 is a very forgiving speaker. It sounds good with most components.

B&w 600 series is still on sale. :)

How much is your B&W 684 or any B&W that will match the onkyo 616 which is just 100watts/channel

thanks.......

684 should be fine with the Onkyo 616. I am currently using that receiver with a CM9 and its really great for my small living area..

Mga Sirs,

Recently got a pre owned B&w 601 S3 and LCR60 from fellow Pdvd member.
Question: what specific brand and model AV receiver would you recommend for this speaker in
HT setup for 60/40 music/movie application?
Will use polkaudio sub dsw660i and look for a better surround match nalang later.
 
Tnx po

Since its a mix between HT and audio i can suggest 2 brands that i heard first hand, marantz b&w and onkyo b&w.  both sounded ok with me.  A b&w pioneer mix also sounded neutral but lacked a bit on the low end, but that could also be the result of a weak amp.

Mga Sirs,

Assuming  I have a choices from this model Onkyo TX NR616, Marantz SR5006, Pioneer VSX 1121, Yamaha RX V673 and Denon AVR 2113. Which one do you suggest?

I also preferred playing digital music via usb port.

Tnx

At the very least the front and center speakers should be a match from the same series.

I have revisited the B&W 683 FS being driven by a Rotel RB1582 Power and Rotel RC1550 Pre and source was an Onkyo CS-5VL CD/SACD player

In one word - Luscious bass and treble!

My only gripe is the midrange is too open and heightened for my taste.

Yeah Ivan is right, amp pairing is key for the 683 if you want for its sound to bloom properly.
That's right bro.

Nice. I see that it is using the CM10 tweeter now. I sure hope the CM5 sound trickled down the new 600 series Bookshelf. If it did, I'll defintely get a set ;)

Talked to TOYAMA, distributor of B&W here. According to them no specific date yet when it will be available in our shores but sometime mid year daw. One thing is sure that the price will be more than the current ones.
