Bowers & Wilkins introduces the 800 Signature Series, the most advanced version of the 800 Diamond loudspeaker family . Bowers & Wilkins uses the word “Signature” sparingly in the name, reserving it for rare and radically upgraded versions of their conventional loudspeakers and technology. Since the brand was founded in 1966, only seven series have carried the Signature mark, as a reflection of their prestige and exclusivity.
The new Bowers & Wilkins 801 D4 Signature and 805 D4 Signature models build on a legacy dating back to the famous 1991 Silver Signature , originally designed as a posthumous tribute to company founder John Bowers. The new models build on the already achieved exceptional performance and aesthetics of the 801 D4 and 805 D4 models, which formed the basis of their respective designs, through carefully redesigned components and luxurious and beautiful new finishes.
The new 801 D4 Signature and 805 D4 Signature models represent the pinnacle of Bowers & Wilkins design methods and as such should be considered the new flagships in the company’s loudspeaker lineup.
The 800 Signature Series will be available in two special finishes: Midnight Blue Metallic and California Burl Gloss .
The B&W 801 D4 Signature model will be sold for $64.000 per pair , the shelf B&W 805 D4 Signature will cost $16.000 per pair .
