Bowers & Wilkins 801 D4 Floor Stand Speakers...

... are defined by 40 years of excellence and innovation. Over the decades, each of its incarnations have always been the most advanced loudspeaker B&W have known how to make at that point in time.

"The 801 D4 is our flagship model, it is the most powerful model in the new 800 Series Diamond range - it is the B&W reference loudspeaker."

The Ultimate Matrix

Matrix bracing uses interlocking panels to reinforce loudspeaker cabinet walls in all directions internally, reducing resonances and creating a more believeable soundstage. The Matrix assembly in 801 D4 is our best yet, upgraded with extensive aluminium bracing to reinforce key stress points.

Turbine Head

The all-aluminium Turbine Head houses our Continuum midrange cone in a stiff and critically damped enclosure to eliminate unwanted resonances. At the same time, it's decoupled from both the bass enclosure and the tweeter body. The result is the most realistic midrange sound yet.
