Like the LCR60 S3, the ability to use the LCR600 S3 in either horizontal (more usual in the centre position) or vertical orientation, together with its magnetic shielding, makes it an extremely versatile speaker. This is especially relevant when considering the practical problems of successfully accommodating five speakers in a domestic home theatre installation. Most LCR systems are used for enjoying movies. However, all B&W speakers have a long design heritage rooted in the high quality reproduction of music; the LCR models are no exception to this design philosophy.
