Home Speaker Asylum

General speaker questions for audio and home theater.

RE: REVIEW: B&W DM6 Speakers

For its day a very coherent detailed speaker with excellent imaging. The early ones could be hard to drive because of the multi-tapped auto former on the woofer for a level control. They got rid of it fast which made a much easier amp load and saved a big bunch of dollars.

The crossovers were not true 6 db/octave. They were for about an octave and the went to at least 18 db/octave.

The Stereophile test pair is still at a home in Delaware and they don't sound bad after over 30 years with all the original crossover parts.
