Thanks guys! I got them broken in and they sound even better. B&W speakers are one the best speakers brands I've ever heard. Also my DM601's and CC6 are now on eBay if anyone is interested.

Those are great speakers. The crossover really holds them back though. B&W is notorious for using cheap capacitors in thier mid-range lines. You should open them up and exchange the caps with something from Mundorf or Jantzen!

 

Great deal on those though and nice job repairing them!
