I am revamping my home theater and need a bookshelf for my fronts. I have auditioned the 602's but I have heard wonderful things about other speakers I really want to make the right choice I am up for suggestions, please advise.

The speakers will be powered by a Marantz 4001

I think you should listen to Monitor Audio as well. I believe the Silver series is in the Same price range as the B&W 6 series.

Please note that the B&W 600 series has been discontinued and replaced with the 68x series. The cheapest in the new series is now the 686 which is similarly priced to the 602, but in terms of size the next model up, the 685, is closer to the 602.

Other speakers you may wish to consider would be Totem Dreamcatchers AND Focal'S 705V or 706V. All have appropriate centre speakers to match.

Thanks for the insight on the B&W's. Will a Monitor Audio rS2 Hold it's own with a 602 ? I checked out totems website will look to audition them where I can as well.
