Bowers & Wilkins 804 D4 Tower Speakers - Gloss Black
Details
Compact 800 D4 Tower Speakers
For listeners who crave the performance of an 800 Series Diamond floorstander but prefer a more conventional aesthetic, the 804 D4 is the perfect choice. Its new cabinet and plinth make it the best performing 804 yet.
Classic Quality
804 D4 is perhaps more conventional in appearance than other floor-standers in the 800 Series Diamond range, but it's every bit as sophisticated. Its new Reverse-Wrap cabinet is both a mechanical and acoustic revolution in its class, and its new plinth ensures rock-solid, accurate bass response too.
Aluminium Top-Plate
The 804 D4 has a significantly upgraded cabinet with an all-new aluminium top-plate. This also provides a perfect mounting point for all-new Leather by Connolly trim, with luxurious black leather for dark cabinets and light grey for lighter finishes.
Reverse Wrap Cabinet
Instead of a conventional loudspeaker box, the cabinet in 804 D4 is made from a continuous curved section of wood, with the drive units mounted at the heart of the curvature. This stiffer, more inert structure resists mechanical resonances far better and also ensures better dispersion of sound.
Aluminium Plinth
A great speaker needs a rock-solid foundation. The 804 D4 uses a downwards-firing Flowport exiting on to a solid aluminium plinth, complete with a steel constrained layer damping sheet, which controls unwanted resonance. It also has greatly upgraded spikes for maximum stability and durability.
Solid-Body Tweeter-on-Top
The Solid Body Tweeter-on-Top housing features an elongated form with a longer tube-loaded system and an all-new design of tweeter grille, producing an even more free and open sound for high frequencies.
Diamond Dome Tweeter
One of the most significant accomplishments over the past two decades, the ultra-stiff, supremely accurate Diamond dome tweeter is the perfect combination of low mass, exceptional stiffness and outstanding accuracy. 15 years after Bowers & Wilkins introduced it, the engineering team still haven't found a better tweeter dome technology.
Truly Amazing Sound
Thanks to its composite construction, the Continuum cone avoids the abrupt transitions in behaviour that can impair the performance of a conventional drive unit. The result is a more open, neutral performance that delivers voices and instruments with precision and transparency.
