Bowers & Wilkins - 802 D4 Diamond 1" Diamond Tweeter, 6" Midrange in Turbine Head, Dual 8" Woofer Floorstanding Speaker (each) - Gloss Black

Built to similar proportions as the flagship 801 D4, the 802 D4 offers much of the performance of its larger sibling, including the same Turbine Head enclosure for its midrange drive unit, yet is a more affordable design overall. Perfect for reference-grade stereo listening and an excellent choice in home theatre applications. 802 D4 steps up from 803 D4 by increasing the size of the midrange and bass drive units. The main cabinet and Turbine Head are increased in size to support the larger drive units. The Turbine Head is a carefully designed and tuned aluminium enclosure that houses the midrange driver. This inert structure avoids unwanted resonances and is decoupled from both the bass enclosure and the tweeter body. Cabinet stiffness has been increased with an Aluminium Plate that reinforces the top of the cabinet. Midrange performance has been dramatically improved with a new Biomemetic Suspension that replaces a conventional fabric spider with a groundbreaking innovation that reduces distortion behind the drive unit. The Solid Body Tweeter enclosure has been elongated, increasing air volume behind the diamond tweeter which improves the openness in high frequencies. The top section’s aluminium top-plate is covered in Leather by Connolly trim. We use luxurious, full-grain black leather for Gloss Black and Satin Rosenut finishes, and a light grey leather for White and Satin Walnut. Each new generation of 800 Series Diamond is a landmark event for Bowers & Wilkins. This is our benchmark and the most advanced range of loudspeakers we know how to make, equipped with our most sophisticated technologies and designed to deliver the upmost in sonic realism. The 800 Series Diamond is everything we know, and everything we are.
