Bowers & Wilkins 800D - The Ultimate Hi-Fi Speaker
The World's Finest Loudspeaker Range
It may be quite bold to call these speakers the 'world's finest loudspeakers' but that is the opinion of many industry commentators - they are in use in Abbey Road Studios which certainly backs this up. The unique positioning of the midrange drive unit and tweeter ensure the best sound possible - totally isolated from the bass drivers. The beautiful curved cabinet not only looks great in any environment but also ensures the bass drivers work to the best of their ability. The heavy cast aluminium plinth gives the whole speaker a firm grounding and ensures maximum stability as well as housing the substantial crossover.
Powerful yet Subtle Loudspeakers
There is no doubting that the 800D could deliver sound that would make the hairs on the back of your neck stand up and pin you in to your seat but this loudspeaker also has the finesse to deliver top amounts of detail. The depth of range of the 800D is huge from low bass, reinforced by a down firing bass port, to high tones above the range of human hearing. The tweeter itself is a work of art with a diamond dome capable of beautifully reproducing extremely high frequencies.
Beautiful Curved Cabinets
Most loudspeakers are accommodated in a room - a necessary evil which detracts from the rest of the furnishings - not so the Bowers & Wilkins 800D. The stunning curved cabinets, although substantial in size, are available in beautiful Cherrywood, Rosenut or Black Ash. Allowing the speaker to be part of the room furniture, with a level of craftsmanship you can be proud of.
Ultra-high End Home Cinema too!
If space and finances allow the 800D can be used for high end home cinema, in addition to high end stereo reproduction. Boxed Home Cinema really doesn't come any better than this - 800D's make up front & back left & right channels, HTM1D the center position and the whole lot is reinforced by the massive ASW855 Sub woofer.
