Bowers & Wilkins 801 D4 Floorstanding Speaker Pair

The Bowers & Wilkins 801 D4 redefines what’s possible in high-fidelity sound. Designed and hand-built in the UK, it integrates decades of acoustic expertise with cutting-edge technology to deliver studio-grade accuracy and immersive realism.

At the heart of the 801 D4 is the Diamond Dome tweeter housed in a Solid Body Tweeter-on-Top design a hallmark of B&W’s engineering excellence providing exceptional detail and dispersion. The Continuum™ cone FST™ midrange ensures natural, open vocals, while the Biomimetic Suspension minimizes coloration for pure, uncolored sound.

The Turbine Head design isolates the midrange from vibration, and the Aerofoil™ cone bass units combined with Matrix™ bracing and Flowport™ deliver thunderous yet precise low frequencies. Every element of the 801 D4 is meticulously crafted to reproduce music as the artist intended.

Available in Gloss Black, Satin Rosenut, Satin Walnut, and White finishes, this speaker not only performs flawlessly but also stands as a work of art in any listening space.
