Bowers & Wilkins DM2000 Floorstanding Speakers – Walnut Finish
Built in England between 1983 and 1986, and it handles its bass the unusual way — a 6.5-inch mid-bass driver working against a matching 6.5-inch passive radiator rather than a port, so the low end stays controlled with none of the chuffing a port can add. The 1-inch dome is electronically time-delayed to hold phase through a fourth-order Butterworth crossover. Walnut veneer, 87 dB into 8 ohms, 55 lb each. Very Good condition. Pair — pickup in Kanata, or we deliver.
Bowers & Wilkins DM220 3-Way Floorstanding Speakers — Black Ash
Two 200 mm composite fibre cones and a 26 mm polyamide soft dome in a sealed cabinet, crossed at 500 Hz and 3 kHz. Sealed loading gives tight, controlled bass and placement you can actually work with, and at 90 dB into 8 ohms anything from 10 to 100 watts will drive them. Made in England, finished in Black Ash vinyl. Very good condition.
Bowers & Wilkins WM2 Outdoor Speakers, Pearl White, w/ Brackets
On an outdoor speaker the condition is the whole story — these are almost never retired for how they sound, but for sun turning a white cabinet chalky and yellow, freeze-thaw working at the seams, and grilles blooming with rust. Pearl White shows all of it more plainly than black would, and this pair grades Very Good, factory wall brackets included. B&W did not design a weatherproof box and then find a driver to fit it either: a 130 mm woven fibreglass cone crossed at 3.5 kHz to a 25 mm dome, the same material philosophy as their indoor speakers.
High Quality, Well-Reviewed B&W Satellite speakers VM1
A two-way vented-box satellite: 125mm cone bass/mid, 25mm high-frequency unit, crossed at 3.5 kHz, 91 dB into 8 ohms. Magnetically shielded, 20.6 inches tall on a footprint under five inches wide. Each speaker comes with its own all-metal shelf stand for horizontal or vertical placement, no extra hardware needed. They retailed around $600 Canadian.
B&W Solid HCM1 Compact Satellite Speakers with Integrated Stands
A sealed two-way from B&W's Rock Solid series — a 4-inch fibre cone woofer and a polycarbonate dome in a polycarbonate cabinet chosen to kill resonance without adding mass. 90 dB, so modest amplification is enough, and magnetically shielded for desk use. Each speaker comes on its integrated stand bracket. Mark runs a pair as his office near-fields. Cosmetics good, 7 out of 10; tested.
Bowers & Wilkins Matrix 804 Floorstanding Speakers – Black Ash
A consecutively serial-numbered pair from B&W’s Matrix era, 1991 to 1998 — the generation that filled its cabinets with an internal lattice instead of building a plain box, so the panels add as little of their own as possible. A 6.5-inch woven Kevlar midrange and a 6.5-inch Cobex bass driver sit beneath a 26 mm metal dome, reaching down to 39 Hz. Black ash, Very Good condition, fitted here with handmade Radique Audio bi-wire bridges.
