NEW TWEETER GRILLE MESH
Both 801 Signature and 805 Signature introduce a new design of tweeter grille mesh. As per the mesh design introduced in 2015, the new grille mesh offers a carefully optimised combination of stiffness – necessary to protect the fragile dome from unwanted damage – and openness.
NEW BASS MIDRANGE UNIT
Bowers & Wilkins took the same approach with the mid/bass drive unit on 805 Signature, which also features an upgraded pole on the magnet plus a larger vent hole for improved current distortion.
UPGRADED CROSSOVERS
Both 801 Signature and 805 Signature feature upgraded bypass capacitors (identifiable by their yellow finish). These are also doubled-up in quantity across the boards. The result is an even cleaner sound.
REVERSE WRAP CABINET
The 805 Signature cabinets are formed from one continuous curve, finished off with a spine of solid aluminium
COMPACT & POWERFUL
The 805 D4 Signature stand-mount loudspeaker is compact and powerful. It features fully optimized technologies, including a Diamond Dome tweeter and Solid Body Tweeter-on-Top.
UPGRADED CROSSOVER
The 805 D4 Signature uses upgraded rear-mounted crossover designs mounted on stiff aluminum spines. This isolates the sensitive capacitors from the unwanted effects of air pressure within the enclosure and makes for a very effective heatsink to ensure optimum performance when in use.
