Very Nice! I'm using B&W DM602 S3's for my rears with two ASW650 subs. I'm using a Yamaha RX-Z1 as well. How's that AVR?

Actually, its not an AVR, its a stereo receiver, DRA-697CI, and it is awesome, drives the 603s very well and to extremely loud levels.

Love those speakers. Can't wait to ditch my Mirage speakers for some B&Ws. I also use a Denon receiver. What is your receiver rated at @ 8ohms??? Not trying to be nosey but I would like to know how my receiver will drive a pair of those main speakers.

100x2, its not a super powerful receiver or anything, its just rated to deliver that power from 20hz to 20khz at like 0.08% THD.

I enjoy mine a lot as well. I also assume that EE stands for Electrical Engineer, which is kind of funny since I am studying to be an Electrical Engineer.

Those speakers replaced a set of Bose 301s, I got the Bose speakers back in 6th grade and have now completed 2 years of college.

Used to be an EE... Now, not so much... The Engineering college at UC sucks BAWLS....

Also, I have the 703 with a lot more equipment... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

If you really want to see a BIG upgrade on those speakers, find a store around you that sells Arcam and pick up a CD Player and some good analog interconnects.

You won't regret it...

Well, technically the DVD player I am using has 24 bit 96khz DACs in it and when measured puts out theoretically perfect CD audio when measured. It was reviewed way back in the day in Stereo Review and it measured as well as any CD player they had ever tested they said. I am using analog interconnects anyway as this receiver does not have digital inputs.

Just some words of advice...

Select equipment with your ears, because you can not hear specs... //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Nice start, I think you're about ready for new furniture to match the B&Ws //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
