There are moments in music when you just want to be there. When the impulse to be part of a recording, of an event in your musical history, takes hold. Moments when the emotional connection between the performer and the audience is tantalizingly close, and their joy, sadness, anger or passion becomes yours as well. The more lifelike the sound, the more alive that connection can become. The very best sound systems will reconstruct the acoustic environment and put you where you want to be. Don’t settle for less than the closest you can get.

Nautilus Now recognized as a design classic, the original Bowers & Wilkins Nautilus™ is not just our flagship product, but the very pinnacle of technological innovation to which all others must aspire. It is the result of a groundbreaking, five year research and development programme to achieve, as near as possible, the perfect loudspeaker. The Bowers & Wilkins Nautilus is recognized worldwide as an outstanding loudspeaker which continues to shape the direction of the audio industry to this day. Much sought after by cognoscenti, it has been unashamedly designed with the serious audiophile in mind, not only because of its size and shape but also because of its active design – the crossover network is positioned between the pre and power amplifiers.

800 Series Diamond One material sums up Bowers & Wilkins' quest for perfection in sound reproduction more than any other. Diamond. It’s the ultimate tweeter material – and the magic ingredient in our flagship 800 Series Diamond. It’s part of the reason why 800 Series speakers have become legendary among professional recording studios and serious sound enthusiasts alike. And now, for the first time, you can hear the incredible precision and clarity of diamond in every speaker in the range. The very best just got even better. And perfection just got even closer.

PM1 Carbon Braced Tweeter: With a break-up frequency of 30kHz, our aluminium dome tweeters already push sound quality well above the upper limits of the audible range. But inspired by what we’ve learned about diamond, we wanted to see if we could do even better for the PM1. The result is an entirely new type of tweeter dome. By bracing the dome with a ring of filament-wound carbon fibre, we’ve raised the break-up frequency of aluminium to 40kHz. More Info Sales Inquiries

CM Series Pure and Simple. By using our most refined drive unit technologies, developed for reference-standard speakers such as the 800 Series Diamond, we've been able to hone the speaker down to its purest essentials. The CM Series uses minimalist crossovers of remarkable simplicity and quality, so what you hear is that much closer to the sound of the original recording. In its functional perfection and understated elegance, it's nothing less than a masterpiece. Pure and simple. More Info Sales Inquiries

600 Series In all our 600 Series midrange/bass units the distinctive yellow woven Kevlar® cone snuffs out the kind of concentric standing waves that build up in standard, homogenous cones, while a light, airy ‘open’ chassis cuts down echo from behind the cone. But, to the midrange of the three-way 683 speaker, we’ve been able to add something even more special. We call it ‘fixed suspension transducer’ or FST™ for short. It sounds complex, but it’s not. It’s simple, and it sounds wonderful, but until now it has only been seen in Bowers & Wilkins audiophile ranges, such as the 800 Series Diamond. More Info Sales Inquiries

Subwoofers Bowers & Wilkins’ wide range of subwoofer brings together some of the most advanced bass technology in the business.

• This is a collection of music professionals talking about the new B&W 800 Series.

• B&W 802D Speakers

  The B&W 802D loudspeakers came to play. It brings the musical performance into the room, right in front of the listener, rather than opening a window on a performance happening in some other, more distant space. Such powerful immediacy without glare or stridency is a thrilling and untiring aspect of all B&W speakers.

  B&W 803D Speaker System

  This series of B&W speakers are a prime example of the successful manifestation of build and design principle into sonic reality in the listening room. But the pure enjoyment and excitement that this system delivered is probably the ultimate compliment I can pay it. This B&W speaker system was as enveloping, exhilarating, and flat-out enjoyable as any speaker system I've ever heard.

  B&W 804S Floor-Standing Speakers and HTM3S Center Channel Speaker

  Well, the verdict is in. Of all the speakers made throughout the world, for those that I have listened to, B&W speakers remain some of my favorites. Their powerful, yet smooth, sound reminds me of some of my other preferred designs, namely, ribbons and ESLs. In particular, the HTM3S is one of the best center channel speakers out there.

  TONE Audio

  The 805D series B&W speakers are a tour de force of style and technology in a compact package. Whether you are buying a pair as your main speakers in a high-performance two-channel system or a multichannel setup, you'll find that they offer up performance well beyond their small size. While I missed purchasing the last version, I didn't let the 805D's get away.

  B&W CM-7 Speakers

  Ever notice the way cheap audio gear usually gives you controls with names like “spatial expander” and “hyper bass” to, well, hype up the sound, whereas top-of-the-line gear is typically devoid of such controls? While I suppose many would argue that a cheap system usually needs a little sonic goosing at the top and bottom to sound good, I feel it has more to do with the system’s ability, or lack thereof, to deliver an accurate and articulate mid- range performance. While foundation- shifting bass and a soaring top end might keep the kiddies impressed for a few minutes, it’s that vast stretch of octaves in between that really separates the men from the boys when it comes to delivering knockout audio performance.

  B&W CT-800 Speakers

  As Kong and his dinosaur antagonists clomp about clumsily, the CT800 from B&W speakers pounds right along, shaking the entire theater with each of the giant ape’s thunderous steps. It’s louder than my ears can stand for long, but I hear not a trace of distortion or harshness.

  Bowers & Wilkins CT 700 Series Loudspeakers Reviewed

  What Bowers & Wilkins have done with their entire CT Series, specifically the CT 700s reviewed here, comes closer to bridging the gap between the filmmaker and the home viewer than any speaker I've encountered before them. They convincingly recreate a true home theatre movie experience, provided you can accommodate their unique installation demands or don't mind their control room-chic look. Looking back on my time spent with the CT 700s, no other speakers, and we did use a number of various brands, got us closer and made us feel more comfortable going to the final stages of locking the sound than these classy B&W speakers did.

  B&W 684 Speakers

  The B&W 684 was a treat to have in my system. It was nice to have a well-designed, very affordable speaker on hand to deflate my speaker snobbery. The speaker's performance as a whole surprised me, and the detailed smoothness of its midrange wowed me.

  B&W 683 Speakers

  The 683 is the top model in B&W’s most recent incarnation of the entry-level 600 Series. It’s not a speaker range to be taken lightly, especially given that B&W is one of the largest dedicated loudspeaker makers in the world and thus one of the biggest players in the audiophile market.

  B&W M-1 and PV1

  It might be difficult to endorse the M-1’s audiophile pretensions with real enthusiasm, but it’s very easy to like and enjoy – it’s exceptionally neat and discreet, and relatively inexpensive too. And that’s praise-worthy in a very small satellite speaker.
