Bowers & Wilkins is a British loudspeaker maker with more than half a century of audio engineering behind it. Its loudspeakers and headphones are known for their design, their craftsmanship and their sound, and the company's long commitment to research has produced a string of patented technologies and new materials. That work shows in each product's ability to reveal the fine detail in a recording and carry the feeling of a live performance.
John Bowers and Roy Wilkins started the company in Worthing, on the south coast of England, in 1966, and the 800 Series is still built there by hand. Abbey Road Studios has used Bowers & Wilkins as its reference monitors since 1980. The diamond dome tweeter, the Continuum cone and the turbine-shaped midrange enclosure of the 800 Series all came out of the company's own research, and what is learned at the top is passed down. The range runs from the 600 Series through the 700 Series to the 800 Series Diamond, with floorstanding and standmount loudspeakers, center channels, subwoofers and headphones.
Pearl Audio has been a Bowers & Wilkins dealer since 2020. We deliver and set up the loudspeakers ourselves in the Portland area, position them in your room, and tune the subwoofers on site. More on Bowers & Wilkins at Pearl Audio.
