Nice Setup. I've been given the same set of speakers that were used as monitor speakers in a editing booth. I've been using them as left and right front speakers in a 9.0 setup mostly for movies. Lately i'm wondering is a Subwoofer any vallue for such a setup. or do i need a bunkers Sub to get any vallue out of it? The Reciever i'm using is an Denon AVRX3600H and i use B&W AMP1 amplifiers between the speakers and reciever.
Then you buy them anyway and put them a bit closer to the wall + you put a sock in the ports, i run mine perfectly in a 25 sq m2 living room. Placed after wilson Audio's WASP principle. Distance between centre of midranges you multiply with ca 1.15, and that is your distance to respectable ear side. So if you have 100" between mids, you position your ears ca 115" from mids, respectively to both sides/ears. Mine are placed on 14cm high 60kg concrete blocks to get more elevation and nothing into the floor. If you can get your hans on the 801 alignment filter you get even more perfect sound. There is an alignment filter for every matrix 800 series speaker, and besides that there is an actual Series 800 Alignment filter, inside you have dipswitches to select specific model. In my ears, and i have had the posibility to compare, The B&W Matrix 801 S2 outperforms the S3 by far. Give them a current able amp and they will shine.

When you have the money, but not the place.

High quality bass!
What are you using for amps to run these?
In this video i used to use Denon PMA-2000r, but the main amp is Vincent SV-234.
Is the recording defective or do the speakers actually sound that poor? B&W disappoints again.
What Song?
Pink Floyd - Another Brick In The Wall (Vintage Culture Remix)
