Picking a speakers

Hi guys, I need your opinion on which speakers to pick. I recently purchased a 2 Bowers and Wilkins 805S and HTM2 for a center channel. I read somewhere that they don't match. And would need to get HTM4S to match 805S. Now, my question is: Should I purchase HTM4S and stick with 805S or should I purchase 804N and stick with HTM2? PS: I do have a nice velodyne servo subwoofer, so the bass is not my problem.Thank you in advance!

Thank you. What would you choose between 805S and 804N?

I purchased used Velodyne Servo FSX-12 today and the sound is fantastic with 805S. But I'm so itchy to get 804N.

You don’t need our group permission to buy the 804N’s!  Clearly you’re just looking for someone to tell you to get them.  If that’s what you really want….then go for it!

No. I'm really looking for someone that heard both speakers. I know that S is the newer model and crossover is better on it. But 804 is a floarstanding speaker. Just want to make a right choice.

I am going to make an assumption that you have an av type receiver that included a "setup" microphone. If that is true read on. Using the manual and the mic, calibrate each channel to the proper volume output. If you change speakers, repeat. Now you are ready to compare speakers for there sonic capabilities within your particular AV system.
