Product Summary

The DM570 construction consists of a one piece moulded baffle design – in which components are exactly appropriate to the size and expected performance. A performance guided to perfection through the use of CAD, finite element analysis and laser interferometry techniques.

The two-way front vented system has a specially designed 8in bass/midrange driver of the highest sophistication incorporating a high temperature Kapton voice coil which effectively winds up to increase power handling.

Technical highlights

B&W's Tweeter technology ensures that the sound remains focused and time sensitive and that the stereo image is presented with unparalleled three dimensional accuracy.

The cabinets feature a specially designed high density front baffle which achieves almost Matrix-like stability in strengthening overall enclosure construction. The bevel edges of the front moulding reduce diffraction and improve dispersion.

The crossover components use heavy gauge wire throughout and new drivers guarantee not only high reliability but ensure that top specifications are met.

DM570 specifications

The Bowers & Wilkins DM570 is a classic loudspeaker that has made its mark in the world of high-fidelity audio. Launched as part of the renowned DM series, this speaker encapsulates the brand's commitment to delivering unparalleled sound quality, marrying innovative technology with aesthetic elegance.

One of the standout features of the DM570 is its driver configuration. The loudspeaker is driven by a robust 6.5-inch bass driver that ensures powerful low-frequency reproduction. Accompanying this are two specially designed 1-inch fabric dome tweeters that achieve exceptional high-frequency clarity and detail. The meticulous design of these drivers allows the DM570 to deliver a full-range audio experience, making it suitable for a wide array of music genres.

The DM570 employs an advanced crossover network that plays a crucial role in managing audio frequencies. This technology ensures that each driver operates within its optimal range, resulting in seamless transitions between bass and treble. The accuracy of this crossover enhances overall sound staging, allowing listeners to experience music as it was intended by the artists.

Another noteworthy characteristic of the DM570 is its cabinet design. The speaker is housed in a beautifully crafted enclosure that minimizes resonance and distortion. This attention to cabinet design is complemented by a high-quality finish, available in various wood veneers, providing an aesthetic appeal that can fit into any decor.

In terms of connectivity, the DM570 features high-quality binding posts that support bi-wiring and bi-amping configurations. This versatility enables audiophiles to further enhance their system's performance by using multiple amplifiers or specialized cabling.

The DM570 is not just about raw performance, but also about the listening experience. The speaker's design reflects a commitment to delivering a smooth, natural sound signature that brings music to life. Whether you are listening to the subtleties of a classical composition or the driving beats of modern music, the DM570 is engineered to captivate and immerse.

In conclusion, the Bowers & Wilkins DM570 stands out as a speaker that combines cutting-edge technology, elegant design, and incredible sound quality. Its robust driver configuration, advanced crossover network, and premium cabinet construction make it a worthy investment for anyone serious about enjoying high-fidelity audio in their home.
