Enhance your home theater setup with these Bowers & Wilkins M1SMB stands, which elevate your M1 speakers (not included) to an optimal level. The swiveling design allows you to position the speakers in a horizontal or vertical orientation.

Good looking solid stands
on August 27, 2016
Posted by: MikeZ
Verified Purchase:Yes
Overpriced, but you knew that just from the B&W name. These work as expected, but the directions are a little sub-par regarding the plastic piece in the top of the stand and the setting of the speaker into the plastic piece to mount the speaker to the stand. There's a small diameter, long set screw in the tube of the stand - I needed to loosen it up to permit the plastic piece to be more easily withdrawn/re-inserted (speaker wire electrically connects to terminals on the bottom of the plastic piece so it must be removed). Also,when inserting the speaker, you need to press the button on the plastic piece that extends through the tube of the stand. This reminds me that feeding the wire through the stand is a pain - it should have been pre-wired so that you connect to the stand with banana connectors.

Good Compact Speakers for Mid-Fi Home Theater
on August 27, 2016
Posted by: MikeZ
Verified Purchase:Yes
I have these in the same room as a pair of floor standing reference speakers that I use for listening to music - these little B&W's obviously don't hold a candle to the big floor standing speakers. That said, I use them only for home theater and they're actually pretty good for TV and movies. I don't think that they're great for music. If you have the room, I'd recommend opting for floor standing speakers of similar quality. If you're cramped for space because you bought those reference floor standing speakers that your wife hates and/or have a wife that didn't want you to buy anymore electronic gadgets, these may be the speakers you need (so that she doesn't divorce you).

Great Compact Sub for Mid-Fi Home Theater System
on August 27, 2016
Posted by: MikeZ
Verified Purchase:Yes
I purchased this sub because of the good reviews and because it matched with the B&W M-1 speakers. The unit has an interesting look that I'm pretty sure will be a pain in real life. The unprotected ends look cool, but I'm a bit concerned that they may get damaged if someone gets a little careless when they're vacuuming.n the cannon ball configuration is a little awkward during set up - roll it on carpet or a towel to prevent it from being scuffed up.

are these stands compatible with Samung HT-D6730 system speakers

Yes - these stands are compatible with nearly all speakers - you just need duct tape to hold the speaker to the stand if you're thinking of using the stand with any speaker other than the B&W M-1 speaker that this stand was designed for. If you opt for these stands, please post photos!
