I've had my Bowers & Wilkins DM601 S3's for over 20 years and they have given me countless hours of enjoyment over the years but over the last couple of years I've been feeling a growing desire to replace them.
Last year I demo'd a pair of ATC SCM 11's which were just better in every conceivable way, especially the tweeter, but I was put off by the wierd metal grill covers. Unfortunately my room is a dust magnet and I was concerned that the coating on the main speaker would have been ruined by dust sticking to it due to the lack of a proper dust cover.
What I'm looking for is something that performs similarly to the ATC's but doesnt have sticky coatings on the drivers and ideally proper dust covers to protect them! I'm prepared to spend up to £1.5k, I'm not restricting myself to new and I can accomodate floorstanders if the total width including feet doesn't exceed 30cm per speaker.
Any advice/recommendations would be greatly appreciated
