Most people obsess over the projector and forget about the screen. That might be a mistake. Episode 18 of The Front Row podcast is now live. Click here for details.

m1982 M Hello, I just purchased a Rotel 1520 integrated amp, I am setting it up to my iMac and have ALAC files for music (still searching for a DAC under $500). My system will be in the living room of an apartment (about 12x13). Which speakers do you recommend, B&W CM1 vs CM5, I have listened to both at a local shop but cannot decide if $500 extra is worth it. Thank you. #1 · Aug 30, 2011 Hello, I just purchased a Rotel 1520 integrated amp, I am setting it up to my iMac and have ALAC files for music (still searching for a DAC under $500).

If you decide to run a sub, then the CM1 is fine. The CM5 has less of a droop in the mids and seems to have a better linearity in the upper bass. #3 · Sep 3, 2011 Thank you so much! I decided for the CM5 since I wont be using a sub, it sounds great. For some reason to me it sounded like the cm1 had more clear and detail sound than cm5 but I liked the bass on the cm5.
