Hi,

So my current setup consist of these B&W speakers
2x CM8 floorstanders
1x LCR60S3 center speaker
2x CWM362 as surround speaker
2x CWM362 as surround back speaker

The floorstanders replaced the DM603S3 from my previous setup, the center speaker I planned on upgrading later/now ...

As the CM-series is no longer in production, I was wondering which is the best choice for upgrading the center speaker.
Of course buying a CMC or CMC2 speaker second hand is a possibility, but prices don't seem to have dropped a lot.
So I am more tending towards buying new, and was wondering if the 700 series is comparable to the CM-series?

Will the HTM72S2 for instance be a good match with the CM8's?
Or is 'mixing' a good plan? Klipsch center speakers e.g. seem to be getting good reviews.

The main usage of this setup is as home theater.

Any tips/remarks are welcome!

B&W "voices" their speakers in their own way so I'd stick with the brand at least.
