40 Years of Excellence That Has Built a Cult Following Innovation.
Bowers & Wilkins 801 D4 is defined by it. In each of its incarnations over the decades, 801 has always been the most breakthrough loudspeaker that B&W knows to make at that particular point in time, a display of all their cutting-edge technologies and most original thinking. No wonder it has gained such a cult following.

The Ultimate Matrix
Matrix bracing uses interlocking panels to reinforce loudspeaker cabinet walls in all directions internally, reducing resonance and creating a more credible soundstage. The Matrix assembly in 801 D4 is B&W’s best yet, upgraded with extensive aluminium bracing to reinforce key stress points.

All-Aluminium Turbine Head Cuts Out Any Undesired Resonances
All-aluminium Turbine Head The all-aluminium Turbine Head houses the Continuum™ midrange cone in a stiff and critically damped enclosure to cut out unwanted resonances. At the same time, it’s decoupled from both the bass enclosure and the tweeter body. The outcome? The most realistic midrange sound yet.

Biometric Suspension
Sometimes, making a big difference takes unconventional thinking. B&W’s new Biomimetic Suspension revolutionises midrange performance by significantly attenuating the unwanted air pressure and colouration that a traditional fabric spider can generate. The outcome? Midrange transparency that’s truly incredible.
