Hey guys I got a fantastic deal through Best Buy for a BW center channel. It’s the HTM7 instead of the HTM61s2.

I’m putting this in my bedroom with the
BW606s2 bookshelf speakers. Would y’all recommend the 7 series center channel?

Also what power amp would you run these speakers I was thinking of monolith3x or the new BASX 3 ch from Emotiva?

thanks

Personally from my experience with B&W they wouldn't even be on the short list. The power amp would have more to do with your actual use, i.e. desired spl at particular distance from the speaker. Might use this to help determine your needs http://myhometheater.homestead.com/splcalculator.html

Another option for amplification would be 3 Outlaw model 2220 monoblocks. Slightly less than a Monolith 3 and would be smaller and lighter.

Model 2220

Mono? Mini? Micro? Magnificent? Whatever that M is, this is one UNREAL little single-channel amp. 200 Watts (conservatively!) into a 3-inch chassis with balanced input stage to offer Common Mode Rejection! MANUAL See Front Panel Huge See Rear Panel Huge
