Bowers & Wilkins DM601 S2 owner manual Description

DM601 S2 specifications

The Bowers & Wilkins DM601 S2 is a compact bookshelf speaker that embodies the brand's commitment to producing high-quality audio equipment. Renowned for its impressive performance in both music and home theater setups, the DM601 S2 is designed for audiophiles and casual listeners alike, offering a blend of refined aesthetics and cutting-edge technology.

One of the key features of the DM601 S2 is its 5-inch woven Kevlar cone woofer. This material is known for its rigidity and lightweight properties, allowing it to reproduce low frequencies with remarkable accuracy and minimal distortion. The woofer is complemented by a 1-inch aluminum dome tweeter, which is designed to deliver crisp, clear high frequencies. This combination creates a well-balanced sound profile that ensures a full range of audio reproduction.

The DM601 S2 employs Bowers & Wilkins’ unique Decoupled Double Dome Tweeter technology. This innovative design minimizes cabinet resonance and enhances the clarity of high-frequency sounds. By isolating the tweeter from the cabinet, the DM601 S2 can produce detailed highs without coloration from the speaker housing, resulting in a purer listening experience.

Another notable characteristic of the DM601 S2 is its meticulously engineered cabinet, which is constructed from high-quality MDF materials to reduce unwanted vibrations. The speaker features a rear-firing bass port, designed to enhance low-frequency response and provide deeper bass extension. The port's positioning allows for flexible placement options in a variety of room settings without compromising sound quality.

The Bowers & Wilkins DM601 S2 is not only about sound quality; it also boasts an elegant design that can fit seamlessly into any décor. Available in several finishes, including black ash and cherry, the speaker's aesthetic appeal is accentuated by its understated lines and refined detailing.

Overall, the Bowers & Wilkins DM601 S2 stands out as an exceptional choice for those seeking high-performance speakers in a compact format. Its combination of advanced technologies, superior build quality, and stylish design makes it a remarkable addition to any audio setup. Whether you're listening to music, watching movies, or gaming, the DM601 S2 promises an immersive sound experience that will satisfy even the most discerning listeners.
