B&W M-1 speakers- thoughts and experiences


I am installing a dedicated budget HT system in a small 8'x8' room. I am considering the B&W M-1 monitors (3 required - 1 center and left and right) and matching sub. The rears will come later. I will probably match these with a Denon on Onkyo receiver. Has anyone had experience with thsese monitors? I really like the size and look and would consider other brands in a simialr price range with similar size specs? I would prefer to purchase used regardless.
I have a dedicated active Linn system for 2 channel and love the sound but can't put out the cash for another Linn multi channel system
Thanks!!!

I've been trying to buy a pair of these for about a month. Finally found a dealer that's willing to sell a pair today, so I'll be taking a long ride tomorrow to take a listen and hold them in my hand. I spoke to a guy at B&W USA and he said that they are a step up from the LM's. I will let you know tomorrow night how they sound. It's going to be hard to find them used; I had a hard time finding them new.
Change of plans. I lost my ride, so I ordered a pair from the local dealer. I should have them by Thursday. I will let you know how they sound once they arrive.
I'm a B&W fan myself but I heard from a biased person that NHT makes similar speakers and that they blow away the B&W's. You might have a listen if you can. He didn't say what the difference was nor the price. Good Luck Dan
