Personal Review

"In this B&W 606 S2 Anniversary Edition review, I delve into the highs and lows of using these stand mount speakers. Their remarkable clarity, surprising bass response, and robust build make them a great value for money. However, they do have some limitations such as low efficiency and the need for a break-in period. Whether in a small or medium-sized room, these speakers can deliver an impressive audio experience."

Bass Response

8.5

For their size, the 606 S2 Anniversary Edition speakers deliver a surprisingly solid bass response. Several users noted that while a subwoofer would enhance the low-end further, it's not strictly necessary for smaller rooms. This makes them a versatile option whether you're using them alone or as part of a larger setup.

Treble Detail

The high frequencies on these speakers are well-detailed and clear, making music sound vibrant and alive. While one reviewer found the speakers to be a bit 'bright,' most users enjoyed the treble performance, citing excellent clarity and precision in the high-end frequencies.

Midrange Clarity

8.8

Midrange performance is one of the strong points of the 606 S2 Anniversary Edition. Multiple reviewers cited that the midrange is very clear and well-defined, making vocals and instruments stand out. This clarity contributes significantly to the overall sound quality and listening experience.
