Hi Mary,
Thanks for the info. I looked at the 685LS and it sounds real
good. As far as a woofer, their frequency range sounds very
adequate. I believe they go down to 40 hz. At 92 I don't need that
real low, boomy bass that the teen's like.

Hi Bud,
I put a new subject line reflecting your original interest. The Bowers
and Wilkins speakers I had in mind are the 685 s2. I do not personally
own these. I have had larger floor standing B&Ws in the pastg as well
as in wall b&Ws in a home we lived in a few years ago, and they were
all wonderful. Presently, I have the mm1 computer speakers, which are
awesome for their size. Here is a link to a cnet review of the 685
speakers. The only knock on them, as you would expect, given their
size, is that they don't go way deep in the bass. B&W does make some
small subs that would do the job for that if you had the space. Cost of
these is $650 which ain't cheap for a pair of bookshelf speakers.
