Dane I'm trying to find a local supplier for the Bowers and Wilkens mm-1 also. Having some difficulty though.

I Had a pair and I wasn't too impressed to be honest, they're okay but nothing earth shattering. I suppose that's because I set a high bar when it comes to my music listening as I want to enjoy it. If you can wait a little longer and save a little more then perhaps you might look at some computer Desktop speakers that will really knock your socks off and show your ears the true quality of your music and there are quite some incredible pairs to choose from such as those from Keff - can't remember the model number now - and of coruse the B&W M1's which are still available. Both these sets have their own Sound Cards in them if you like to think of it that way so they just plug into the power and your computers USb port ready for Windows to find them, they do have Aux-In for older systems or for other devices. Both the sets from Kef and B&W are strictly 2 channel units though one could be forgiven for thinking that you have a 30 inch sub-wooffer connected to your computer.
