A few years ago i started really getting into my own home theater & 2ch system. My wife & i just moved into a house from previous apts and now have something, that with my budget, im proud of. Its definately still in the works but this is what i have as of now. I love the warmth that B&W brings to the table. Once i added the 685s in the back, movies took on a whole new dimension! 5 channel stereo sounds pretty sick too. We just painted the wall behind the equipment, not sure if i like it. Looks better in person than in pics but think i want to change color of pattern. Anyways... all comments are welcome. Dont worry you wont hurt my feelings!....
Nice set up!! I loved my 683s, as stated before a very under rated speaker. I think you'd be a lot happier adding some power since most all B&Ws are power hungry. I used a Rotel preamp and went through a RB1080 (200wx2) then to the RB1092 (500wx2). The last amp made them sound damn good and I got many compliments from friends. I also replaced the stock internal wiring, solder points and bi-wire jumpers which made a big difference. B&W paired with Anthem products is a great combination if you're upgrading from the Denon.
