A speaker worth checking out if you can find a dealer is the new POLK LSI line. I prefer the LSI7 (smaller bookshelf) to the CDM 1NT and it can be purchased much cheaper as can the bigger LSI9 bookshelf. This is based on many listening sessions with the B&W at different show rooms. To my ear the Polk's sound better. They are smooth, not the least bit bright which is a plus when running on a receiver. I'm using a Denon receiver and they sound great together. They seem to be very musical speakers and sound great with movies.
May be worth a listen....
