Product Summary

Designed with the more demanding digital sources of the nineties in mind, the 600 series has earned a reputation for minimal coloration and musical accuracy in audio reproduction. Successfully capturing the transients found in music meant developing a loudspeaker able to do justice to the attack of the original audio signal.

Designed by a master of industrial design Dr Kenneth Grange, the cool, dark lines of the 600 series cabinet are perfect partner for contemporary furniture and interior design settings.

The bass units have been upgraded with a new cone and surround assembly, injection moulded with revised materials and geometry. The surround is now moulded directly onto the cone, forming a welded joint, which is more consistent and far more secure than its glued equivalent.

The response of the improved bass units is significantly smoother and requires less correction by the crossover network. The number of components has been reduced accordingly, which helps lessen the degradation of the signal.

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 strict acoustic requirements of the cabinet have dictated a front baffle moulding of extra high rigidity. The polymer has been chosen for its composition and ability to reduce unwanted resonances to a minimum.

Bowers & Wilkins DM620i specifications 6 2 0, Technical highlights

DM620i specifications

Bowers & Wilkins (B&W) has long been celebrated for its dedication to delivering exceptional audio performance, and the DM620i speakers are a testament to this commitment. Launched as part of the esteemed DM series, the DM620i encapsulates the brand's innovative technologies, aesthetic design, and focus on sound quality, making it a preferred choice for audiophiles and casual listeners alike.

At the heart of the DM620i is its impressive driver configuration, which consists of a 1-inch aluminum dome tweeter and a 6.5-inch Kevlar mid-bass driver. The use of aluminum for the tweeter ensures clarity and precision in high-frequency reproduction, while the Kevlar cone in the mid-bass driver offers durability and remarkable transient response. This combination allows the speaker to deliver a balanced soundstage, with crisp highs, detailed mids, and a surprisingly deep bass, ensuring an immersive listening experience for various genres of music.

One of the standout features of the DM620i is its exceptional build quality. The cabinets are crafted from high-density MDF, which minimizes resonance and vibration, leading to cleaner sound reproduction. Additionally, the aesthetic design of the speaker showcases a contemporary finish that not only enhances the visual appeal but also fits seamlessly into a variety of home environments.

The DM620i also integrates advanced technology for enhanced performance. Bowers & Wilkins has equipped these speakers with its proprietary Flowport technology, which optimizes airflow through the rear bass port. This design reduces turbulence, allowing for smoother bass response and minimizing port noise, which is particularly beneficial when driving the speakers at higher volumes.

Moreover, the DM620i is designed with versatility in mind. It can be used in various audio setups, whether as part of a home theatre system or for stereo listening. Its nominal impedance of 8 ohms and sensitivity of 88 dB make it compatible with a wide range of amplifiers, ensuring that users can connect it to their existing audio equipment without hassle.

In summary, the Bowers & Wilkins DM620i stands out in the crowded market of bookshelf speakers for its remarkable acoustic performance, solid construction, and thoughtful design. With its combination of premium materials, advanced technologies, and user-friendly features, it exemplifies what Bowers & Wilkins strives for – a superb auditory experience that caters to discerning listeners. Whether for music or movies, the DM620i is set to impress.
