B&W HTM6 S2 AE Overview
Magnets on the Grille: Unlike the other 600 S2 speakers, the HTM6 S2 uses magnets instead of pegs on its grille to make it easily removable when listening to music. This makes it easy to take a closer look at the drivers and can reveal any problems that need to be addressed.
The HTM6 S2 is a fantastic centre speaker that combines the best of B&W's higher range models with a refined Decoupled Double Dome tweeter and Continuum cone FST midrange and bass drivers from the 700 Series to produce an incredibly detailed, accurate, and natural sounding centre channel. It's perfect for a home theatre system and if you own one of the other 600 S2 floorstanders, this is a must-have for your system.
B&W HTM6 S2 AE Features
The HTM6 S2 Anniversary Edition is a centre speaker designed to blend seamlessly with the other speakers in the 600 Series. Like the 603, 606, and 607, it is rear ported with two 5-inch Continuum bass/midrange drivers on either side of a 1-inch aluminum tweeter. It has a nominal impedance of 8O, a claimed sensitivity of 87dB, and a claimed frequency response that goes down to 72Hz.
Decoupled Double Dome Tweeter: Technology evolved from the Bowers & Wilkins 705 speaker, a decoupled double dome tweeter utilizes an extremely thin aluminum dome for lightness and a thicker aluminum ring for rigidity. This acoustically isolates the tweeter from unwanted resonances and vibrations to deliver improved imaging, dispersion, accuracy, and clarity for more natural-sounding performance.
Continuum Cone Technology: The HTM6 S2 uses B&W's award-winning Continuum cone technology which was first introduced in the 800 Diamond range of speakers. It has been refined and re-engineered in the new 600 series to deliver a clean and precise soundscape for a wider audience. The HTM6 S2 is a great example of how this technology can transform a centre speaker at an affordable price.
Fixed Suspension Transducer: The HTM6 S2 has a fixed suspension transducer, which is an ingenious design that minimizes turbulence. This reduces distortion and maximizes the impact of Continuum cone technology, providing a cleaner, more precise sound for a wide audience.
Dual Binding Post: Both the HTM6 S2 and 606 S2 AE have dual binding posts, which is handy if you want to bi-amp or bi-wire. This is important as it helps limit the chance of the amplifier being damaged when it is switched from one mode to another.
Solid Cabinet Construction: The HTM6 S2 and 606 S2 are made from high-quality materials that help limit distortion. They are also made to look beautiful in any room. They come in a range of finishes including black, white, and oak.

- After Sales Support - The only issue with Hi-Fi equipment is that you will not find local service centers in every city. Most of the brands have their service centers only in the metro cities and hence it becomes difficult for the customers who are living far away places to claim warranty. At AV Kart, we solve this problem by arranging pikcup and drop facility from the nearest service center with the help of our logistic partners.
