| B&W Nautilus 804 - center speaker - SACD 5.1 and Hometheater Update: I ordered a new SVS Prime Center and a used B&W HTM61 S2 (both about same price).

| Name 3 songs where audio quality and song quality completely align Friday Night in San Francisco. First added because auf SOUND, but became a favorite.

| B&W Nautilus 804 - center speaker - SACD 5.1 and Hometheater B&W HTM61 vs HTM61 S2: Both seem to use the yellow honeycomb mid driver (similar to my 804). Tweeter similar looking (?).
