7-inch Continuum Drivers

The CWM8.5 D features a 7-inch Continuum bass driver. Continuum is engineered to provide a more accurate and transparent midrange performance compared to Kevlar. It helps in reducing unwanted resonances and colorations, resulting in clearer and more natural sound reproduction.

Continuum technology from Bowers & Wilkins represents a significant advancement in speaker driver design. By replacing traditional materials with Continuum, Bowers & Wilkins has enhanced the performance of their speakers, delivering clearer midrange frequencies and reducing distortion.

1-inch Diamond Dome Nautilus Tube-Loaded Tweeter

Equipped with a 1-inch Diamond Dome tweeter, the CWM8.5 D delivers precise and articulate high frequencies. By minimizing distortion, the Diamond Dome tweeter preserves the integrity of the audio signal, ensuring clear and precise reproduction of high-frequency content.

Matrix™ Bracing

The speaker incorporates Matrix™ bracing within its rigid aluminum chassis. This internal bracing minimizes cabinet resonance, ensuring that the sound remains pure and uncolored, even at high volumes.
