I had a set of B&W 602 s3 speakers a long, long time ago and didn't get on very well with them. At the time, they were really popular, but I always found the midrange a bit muddled and the bass overpowering. Plus, they were massive.
In that price range, I think you could do better. But what source and amplifier are they to be used with?

I heard about the muddy midrange and the rather hard bass, but am looking for something a bit deeper than my current Dali Spektor 2's. There is nothing overly fancy powering them; just a diy built TPA3255 based amp. Sources are vinyl and cd flacs off a Pi4 with a hifiberry hd dac in all diffrent musical styles. The theory is that I want something warm vintage to offset the rather bland amp.
It's just a simple setup for the office at home (which I have been spending a lot more time in recently). The whole setup will be migrating to a garden office, which we'll will start building once the weather turns. This will also help to warm things up a bit as it will be completly OSB, next to the windows and doors.

I have no idea what the climate is in the used hifi market. But I have been offered a set B&W DM602 S1 in relatively nice condition, some scratches in the finishing, but otherwise really ok.
£175 too much? I was thinking something around £130-150?
