Review: B&W DM-602 s2 Speaker


Category: Speakers

These are great speakers for the money. And they look good too. Very good bass for the size, even on stands. I wanted a bit more so I acquired an M&K MX100 sub (2x10"s).

I use them for music, however, these are speakers that can always find a place somewhere; upgrade to a lower end home theator set up, handed down to a child, given to a parent, etc..

My system is admittedly low end and patched together, but for the money I have into it, it sounds great. Recordings of course have a big impact.

I listen to Rock & Jazz, some blues; Clapton unplugged, Ella Fitzgerald - Gershwin songbook, Sinatra, Nora Jones.

Plan to constantly upgrade, but Audiogon provides a great vehicle for putting together a used system far better than something acquired new at Best Buy, Circuit City, etc..

I bought the 602's from DMoffitt. I love them, I have had them about a year now, running of Integra. It's all very entry level, but at the time, I was about to run out and just a get a bose system. Needless to say I knew nothing about home audio and am happy that DMoffitt saved me.

At the time I thought HT was everything and I bought a Grand Vega at the same time. I love movies, but the more speakers I listen to, the more I realize that I am missing a lot in music.

So in about a year, I am upgrading, but they were a great start, and hopefully I can sell them to someone else that will like them and come to enjoy home audio.
