Hello all,
I’m almost ready to upgrade my speakers and I’m interested in both the B&W 600 series and the CDM 9s.
I’ve heard that the CDM line is very revealing. I understand that it will show any flaws in the rest of the audio chain, but what exactly will that mean or more specifically, what will it sound like?
A lot of the CD’s I listen to are poorly recorded. I listen to a lot of old Blues, distortion filled hard-core, and on occasion mp3’s & poorly recorded live albums. For HT I also play some old VHS tapes that have some audio dropouts.
Are these going to sound worse with the better quality speakers?
For the next 6-12 months they will be powered by a Denon 3802, then I will upgrade to a separate amp. My CD player will probably also need to be upgraded seeing as that it is almost 15 years old.
Thanks
Tom
