The 9500 system is good!! I had it for two months(9000 for a month and the 9500 for a month..these are pretty much the same except for the bigger sub) before deciding to go with the B & Ws. The B & Ws sounded much better in comparision.
If space is a consideration then this is a very good system, nicely priced too. However if size is not an issue, you can get an entry level B & W system with an SVS or HSU subwoofer for slightly higher $$ will be a better system for music and HT.
